Capture London late at night or in the early hours in the morning.
We will be walking around the place taking photos. Mostly around the Thames and other spots in town. We will also go to Regent street for the Christmas lights - when everyone is asleep, we'll be fine putting our tripods in place. There are meeting points almost every 2 hours for us to regroup (head count, compare notes and agree where next). Late comers can join us at the meeting points too.
4-5PM Olde Cheshire Cheese on 145 Fleet Street
6PM depart from pub
8PM Tower Bridge Meeting Point (Northbank)
There is the Liberty Bounds pub for drinks and food closeby
10.30PM London Bridge Meeting Point
Those who want, the Rake pub is close by
00.30AM Black Friars ( any suggestions exactly where? or shall we say beside the bridge?)
2.30AM Embankment, we head off to Bar Italia
3.15AM Bar Italia
5.15AM Regent Street (between princes st and hanover st? any suggestions?
7.45AM Westminster? Any Idea where is the best place for sunrise shot? Since sunrise is 8.05AM I think this should give us enough time to prepare or find the best spot.
Any idea if they leave the light open till morning? I can't find info online...
Don't forget your tripods, mittens, gloves and anything to keep you warm ;)

This sounds awesome. I truly wish that my visit to London was earlier so that I can participate.
Maybe someone will want to go with me during the last week of January???
Good luck tomorrow - hope the weather holds. Sadly I'm in Hampshire or I'd be joing for at least a bit!
This sounds like fun! I'm not really a morning person but I will try my best to make it for the morning sunrise one
