I have set myself a project and have come up with a concept for a book on London and Wednesday was day 1 of project London.

I was looking to get some thoughts on a few shots. I won't go into the details of the book just yet.

Lovely stuff, thanks. I am notorious at not seeing things through but I have a lot of passion in this book. I'll keep people posted to the progress as it happens if you are interested

Pictures look great - but as a suggestion, try heading to the river east/southeast London for an element of the industrial age. Old Tate and Lyle factory, with a backdrop of new developments as there regeneration in these areas is shaping London IMO

Good work!

Thanks people for the good comments. To shoot the underground using a proper set up and for commercial use then you do need a permit, yes.

It is my aim to cover as much of London as possible and the regeneration is something I'm planning. I'm trying to avoid obvious cliches but i will visit Stratford and the Olympic village
