Fire! Horse float ignites

Posted in Animals, General, Nature at 10:03 pm by Warren Williams

Whilst returning from a trip to Dover on the A260 shortly before the A2, came across a truck with horse float trailer, which had just started pluming smoke before rapidly igniting and engulfing the truck in massive fireballs. Fortunately no people or horses were harmed.


Fifteen seconds after ignition!

Sam & Lilly-Mai – Autumn Portraits

Posted in General, People at 6:01 pm by Warren Williams

Samantha and her daughter Lilly-Mai, made excellent subjects in the ever changing conditions at Danson Park. The leaves started to fall just a couple of weeks back, creating a perfect opportunity to head out for some fun shots.

Drift 08 – London Photography Meetup

Posted in Architecture, Landscape, People at 11:29 pm by Warren Williams

We had our 5th London Photography Meetup (facebook group), based around the Drift 08 – first annual art exhibition based on the Thames. Around 30 fellow photographers came, armed with tripods to capture the art between Blackfriars bridge and Tower bridge.

Waterloo Graffiti

Posted in General, People at 5:38 pm by Warren Williams

Leake Street, which runs underneath Waterloo station, used to be a taxi rank for the past ten years, until Waterloo International was closed when Eurostar moved to St Pancras Station. Earlier in 2008, a graffiti show was unveiled, featuring work of Banksy and ever since, it has remained legal to paint as you wish. Spent most of the afternoon here with fellow photographers, before heading to Blackfriars bridge for the big meetup.

Westminster Night Shoot

Posted in Architecture, Landscape at 9:00 pm by Warren Williams

Met up with a few friends for a night shoot around Westminster and London Eye – before encountering some of the intimidating “tripod police”, before settling for a local pub.


Still with too many leaves to get a clean shot
