Evening all.

I'm wanting to take a trip into London to get some photos of my car in interesting places. One of the places I'd like to go and get some pictures is Battersea Power Station. I've been looking on Google Maps, but can't really find anywhere that I can get a slightly elevated view, and be able to park my car for long enough to be able to do it. Does anyone know of anywhere? Or any other views of London I haven't thought about? I got some of Canary Wharf a few months ago (picture on my profile) and would go there again, but I'm not sure where else I could go!

My camera skills are limited though, so I'm not expecting anything amazing, although I did get some good ones with my phone when I last went.

Many thanks, Tim

It does seem to be packed with builders, even on Google StreetView! I did wonder whether I might be able to get some decent ones from Savona Street, but they're from the back and would include all the builders fencing, so might not be great. The bridge seems like a good place to get some, but I don't think I'd get my car in them! Anywhere else I could go for other stuff? The Gherkin or Buckingham Palace?

MI6 Building... I've found a place I might be able to get a good picture! Epsom is a good shout as well for everything, thanks very much for the idea! I'll try and get some pictures up if anyone is interested in seeing them. I know my car isn't all that, but it does scrub up well!

Thanks very much Rogue86, I will check it out! Night shoots are probably going to be the order of the day (or errr night...) as that's the only time I can go!
