A Little Loiter in London pre concert

Last Saturday I fulfilled one of my wishes, to see Penguin Cafe live, and they did not disappoint, proving to be an accomplished band indeed, playing a couple of my favourites too, Music For A Found Harmonium, Perpetuum Mobile, preceded by the very excellent Peter Broderick and Friends.

Prior to that I walked down from Leicester Square to Southbank Centre, taking in the sunshine and taking some shots. Not a fully fledged photo trip so just used Olympus M1 and Panasonic 35-100 , which was the wrong choice, should have selected 12-40. Also a final try with an old Fuji X-A1, plus 18mmf2 lens, disappointing results, so will part with.

A range of shots, but found myself not quite "in the zone", having to flaff around with Oyster Card and renew, which took ages to sort.

Anyway, tried some detail shots around National Theatre and a few on the way. My focus was on dress modes, we are so casual compared with smartness of previous generations, my grandfather never went out without suit, tie and headgear. Not wrong, just different. And the special outfits for groups on a day out, we just wear cameras.

Few different looks for the National Theatre, beautiful clouds there. The lady with the glass looked so sad, I wondered why. The Trio I liked, and the 4 friends in a line. Moments in lives. As usual red features a lot. Skateboarder needed lots of shots to get even one !
