London Scene: winner GrahamHarries
“Walking down St James’s Street, Saturday’s early morning light was heavenly. A gleaming black London taxi was waiting at the traffic lights between two red buses. Suddenly with the reflected light it was transformed into a surreal red icon.”

“As with the Street contest, we had a powerful shortlist covering a wide range of
pictorial approaches. I’ve walked around London looking for shots like this
but so many elements have to be right for success. It all fell into place here
for Graham and he has made the most of the opportunity.”

I used HDR technique as I wanted to push the colour saturation so I took three frames at 1EV intervals.” CameraCanonEOS 5DMark III Lens 16-55mm Exposure 1/50sec at f/5.6and ISO 1600
2 SHAUNHASLAM “My aimwas to capture a reflection of the city after a very long and hot day, giving the feeling of ‘another day over’. TheWalkie Talkie building was the only one that was really responding to the setting sun. Taken from the balcony of TateModern.” CameraNikonD500 Lens 24-70mmf/2.8 at 70mm Exposure 1/125sec at f/10and ISO720
