Piccadilly Circus, London, England, May, 2000
Usually the photos I post have been taken very recently. However, I have a large number of older photographs taken in years past. Right now Tulsa is a mass of icy slush which does not always photograph well. So allow me to share some oldies with you.
While on a tour of England and France with Tulsa Community College in May of 2000 I took a large number of photographs with a film camera using Kodachrome. A CD of digital images were produced by the developer at the time the film was processed and printed. I have converted some of these to black and white (or sepia) using Paint.Net. Brightness and contrast was adjusted to satisfy myself. I will be sharing these from time to time. I hope you enjoy them.

This is a lovely shot - I think the fact that it's raining gives this picture so much more dimension!
Happy weekend!

Oh wow..I like this! The detail of these buildings as well as the rainy day here and all the umbrellas- terrific!
Great idea - I look forward to seeing more.
YES!!! I have been there several times, and at once a saw the picture i could imagine where you was standing. Love it in black and white.
other than the photographic aspect, i appreciate it bcos i have never been there or seen it before
Yes - this photo is really nice.
It is very good simple when weather helps to make good picture. We may feel this rain :)
Monochrome and rain, represents London on quite a few days in the year.
I wish to go there some day. Lovely buildings :)

I want to go back there so badly. It's absolutely beautiful. Oh, and I'm glad to hear you liked the tomato sausage dish. I may have to try it your way next time.
Great picture. I'm ready for more from time to time.
London is always worth a visit - and rain is not uncommon either. Please posrt more.
This one converted well. Trust your eye and your judgment. It's fun to go back through your archives and play with past images.
Very nice. Brings back memories of my year living in London.

Very nice photo, the details are great. Hope to see more of these soon.
The Road to Here
I imagine, at the moment, London may well be covered in snow. The novelty of pictures we are shown on the news of England experiencing a load of the white stuff is beginning to wear a bit thin now!

Hi thanks for visiting my blog. I followed the link to your road trip. Some years ago I had a wonderful week driving in New Mexico and on other occasions a week in California and New England. America has such wonderful scenery and vibrant cities.
Hello from sharonsmum.anne
I think it's a terrific Photo of a (what we think) typical London scene.
Beautifully done with the conversion!
Great detail on the buildings.
I love the picture! Black and white works very well.
I didn't know you went to Europe!
