Rosebery Avenue one quiet Sunday in April 2007
























Taken as part of a series of shots with my then-new Canon EOS 350 DSLR , using my then-new 17-85 mm zoom lens. Part of a guided walk we organised from Finsbury Park to The British Museum, Bloomsbury. This is reminiscent of The Gridiron Building, New York City (Steiglitz shot that in a snowstorm in about 1910, I love that image) and also shows London Plane trees in winter foliage.

Hi Franc - sorry to be pedantic but it's the Flatiron building and Steichen shot it. I only know this cos I chose Steichen to do a picture-in-the-stylee of in the first year so I shot Hornsey Town Hall like the Flatiron photograph. http://www.shootingfromthehip.com/photo_4496566.html
