London is a huge and very popular city destination for many aspiring traveller’s and I’m lucky enough to live only 30 minutes away from it by train… and stupidly I never make the most of it!
As one of my University projects I stepped outside my comfort zone within photography and used a La Sardina Lomography Camera and rolls of film to create a book on London; both Urban and Rural in Spring. My work has always been very precise and controlled; it was fun to let loose and take quick, spur-of-the-moment photographs!
I named it ‘Hail and Rain‘, which is cockney rhyming slang for train – and also, unfortunately, the usual weather circumstances for London…
If you’re planning on visiting, embrace it!
Wear that yellow mac, splash around in your red wellies and definitely, most definitely, bring an umbrella!

Personally, my favourite parts of London are the parks – Hyde Park is lovely in general, St. James’ Park has lots of wildlife, Richmond Park is great for deer… there are plenty!
I also love Camden, it’s so quirky and you can find some amazing things there!
What are you favourite parts of London?

Thank you! It was something that took a lot of getting used to (my style is normally very controlled) but it is fun once you get into the mind frame! You should definitely visit London – you’ll have a great time!

I love London so much! Along the Thames in particular and the markets. I hope to live there again some day in the future. Have heard from friends living there at the moment about the crazy April showers!
