Default A day in London

Hi all this pic was originally taken in colour while on a holiday trip to London, I then photoshopped it to look like this. The pic was taken with my Sony DSCT50 if i remember correct which was stolen in March this year, I am now the proud owner of a Nikon D60 which I am still learning to use properly. Luckily for me this site has given me so much material to work with that I'm greatful for.

Feel free to compliment or criticize the pic.

Hello and welcome, love your picture the big red busses are so iconic. I was always rather cranky with myself for not taking a picture of a big red buss. Did you take any pictures of the red telephone boxes that just seem to appear everywhere?
