Probably not the most traditional view of St Paul's Cathedral - but hopefully you'll enjoy it. Taken with a 4 second exposure while slowly twisting the zoom.

Dear Roberto...
Traditional views of Basilica, Colosseo, Defence, Champs Elysee, Great Wall of China, Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, Manhattan and several dozens of other 'never seen before' objects - we have more on TE than layers of our brains - combined...

The WHOLE idea on the site like ours, with gazillions of the same themes - is to have them uniquely presented.

And, I tell you more, pal...
If your photo, due to this quite interesting experiment - came out blurry, tilted, upside down and out of focus - there are the great chances that I still will value it much more than those with 'oh, so cute-waxy-schmaxy-oh-so-clean, pinkie, white and blue clouds' standard crap for a kindergarten photo experts...

But, hey... That's only me...!

I wish you the best, good buddy...

Kick them balls - hard...

Hi Roberto,
Interesting shot. I like the shadow effects and the light. Regards.

Hi Bob, I lie this much batter compared to the other one. Effect is good but details are lost. keep trying and perhaps you need to twist the zoom at a lesser degree.

Hi Roberto,
This is a really fresh approach to a much photographed piece of architecture (although i personally enjoy to see the traditional shots - along side the more creative)
I can imagine you have inspired many TE members to try out this technique over the weekend.
Interesting work.

My regards,
David

Well done Roberto, very very original, I really like what it looks like multy exposures, I see you took it more or less from the same point as mine, Here well executed.

Interesting experiment and a quite ghostly result, Roberto!
;-D
Lovely dark sky behind.
I've never tried this technique... should be experimenting
more, though.
Cheers,
Robi

I applaud you for trying something different Roberto - it's certainly one of the most original shots of the Millennium Bridge and St Paul's that I've seen, and it stands out from all the boring conventionally framed shots of this place.
Saying that, I think it would have been better to take the shot a bit earlier in the evening - the sky is a bit dark, and with a bit more light and colour there the shot would have been even better.

Cheers,
Ben

Hi,
great idea, I completely agree with Polonaise, well done! Even if I just posted today a standard postcard type of thing shot of the same object! ;)
