Some excellent pics here.

Must get a helicopter to really get the most out of my D90 now!

Great shout - I love the Piccadilly Circus shot - reminds me of American Werewolf in London!

Shame he had to spoil it all with the Emirates Stadium though....

Re: I wish I had taken these photos over London

Considering some of the shots posted on here form the user community the shots are not that impressive, i'm sure some of you lot can take better shots given you had access to the equipment..., i'm pretty sure I can pull off some of the shots using a digital compact , a couple of the shots though are very good..., but the gerkin one below average...

Couldn't agree less with you there Mr Sizzler.

Oh well, be boring if we all agreed wouldn't it.

I like 'em.
#1 works best for me; I particularly like the way the roads look like arteries all leading to the BoE at the heart.

Re: I wish I had taken these photos over London

Lovely shots, can't be easy taking shots from a helicopter? would like to know how / what was used for these.

Can't fault any of them except the Stadium one as Ryanboy said.....would make a good caption one though....the lights are on but no-one's home...a typical gooner
