Exploring the architectural beauty of Battersea Power Station

Today i head up to London to go Exploring the architectural beauty of Battersea Power Station . I capture images from Inside and Out and have a chat with yet more private security staff. All video footage shot on the Osmo Pocket 3 using Freewell variable nd 1/4 mist filter. I like the slight softening effect especially around the city lights.
I captured some images using the #kfconcept magnetic nano x filter system , great filters if your interested Here is an affiliate link for current SALE and use the coupon code LEE17 at checkout for 17% of any purchase until 10th Jan 2024 - bit.ly/3RF7eKS

Great video production and some superb images. Really liked the more 'street' style images early on and the longer exposures of the power station worked really well. Love the final image. Nice work, thanks for sharing

[@LeePelling]

Thank you mate, first trip out with the pocket 3 , nice light set up makes it so much easier, glad you liked it, thanks mate!

[@Bimmly]

You got a cracking set of images Lee, I particularly like the "street' compositions... where you brought out great elements of the scenes.... like the reflection of the towers and the boubles ...... As with a lot of London, the cracking down of photographers is such a pain and takes a lot of the joy out of what for me is a stress releiver of a hobby :-(

[@LeePelling]

Hi mate, thanks for the comment, there is a law that says ant area that the public are given access to be it paid or free becomes public land for that purpose and as we all know you can take a photo from any public land, its the law , but even if you are right these companies believe they are right and instruct their staff accordingly , i cant be bothered anymore having that debate as like you say i am just out trying to enjoy my day. Glad you like the images it is a nice area and looks great with all the Christmas lights etc. Thanks again all the best for 2024

[@robertgrenader858]

I loves three images: The wide angle shots across the river with the ND filters, and the image of the Glide (I would clone out the string of lights, but that's just me).

[@LeePelling]

Thanks mate, last weekend of the festive lights down there so was very nice , i did prefer the images from the opposite bank at blue hour

[@ceesbouma2776]

Hi Lee, again nice shots, i like the long exposure with the railroad, and you did it with a trypod😮and the eosR, like it 👍🏻 al the best for 2024 greetz from the Netherlands

[@LeePelling]

Thank you mate, had several attempts at that shot , trying to keep the rain off the lens. Thanks for watching!

[@ChrisPattonPhotography]

Great video Lee, you got some great indoor shots before being turfed out really liked the style of those shots. The long exposures of the exterior were fantastic the portrait of the power station itself was a favourite 👍

[@LeePelling]

Thank you mate , glad tou enjoyed it, despite the security I enjoyed the trip up there , they certainly transformed the area.

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

That was a great adventure Pal! Tripods seem to be the big bad enemy there for sure 🤯 stunning shots

[@LeePelling]

Thanks Darren , got to love the security companies , not sure what they a protecting but there you go. Was a good day out anyway !

[@robertgrenader858]

@@LeePelling they are concerned about people perving with women and children. Total nonsense, but the pendulum has swung that far.

[@stevesimper2529]

Wow. Fantastic shots. 👏👏

[@LeePelling]

Thanks for watching !

[@danwoodliefphotography871]

Nice video, and you got some beautiful shots.

[@LeePelling]

Thank you for leaving a comment, glad you enjoyed it :-)

[@paulcookphotography]

That was a great vlog mate, really enjoyed watching that and seeing that location again looks like they've done a great job with it since the last time I was there. Shame about the no tripods rule, but I guess that is standard throughout the busier parts of London, but you managed some great handhelds. However, the long exposure at Victoria Station was my favorite - I always love a good train/train track image and what a background the power station makes! Loved everything about this vlog. Hope you and your family are doing well pal, have a great weekend!

[@LeePelling]

Thanks Paul, the power station certainly has been given a new lease of life. I kind of can understand the tripod rule in busy areas, could be seen as a possible blocking or tripping hazard but no mirrorless/dslrs think that is beyond a joke and nobody seems to give a rational reason why that is. The shot of the railway was a last min rushed shot due to the weather but i had intended on that location so as i was so close i was going to at least have a go, glad you liked it. Thanks again mate, take care.

[@GrahamMarkham]

Great set of images, I haven't been to London for quite a few years now for photography, I have the the K&F filters & still to try them out properly.........

[@LeePelling]

Thanks for watching mate, take the filters to London to birds and all that. You won't be disappointed, I was pleasantly surprised.

[@luckysmiler]

Love that last photo Lee ,am going on a tour to the power station on the 29th

[@LeePelling]

they certainly have fixed the place up

[@marcelowilson-barnett3768]

thank for sharing, The no triod things must be fairly new, as I have lots of images of it from last year.

[@LeePelling]

Thanks mate, most places see a proper camera and tripod and think your a professional doing it for commercial gain I think, I did explain its for personal use but they were not changing their minds.

[@johnturnerphotography]

Great vlog Lee with some superb images too I find it crazy that you can’t use a tripod, and as far not allowing you to use a DSLR it is totally laughable. Who makes the rules! It’s bloody crazy 🤪

[@LeePelling]

Its a constant battle in the City ! Thanks for watching mate , all the best !

[@stigfloberghagenphotography]

That was interesting 🙂👍

[@LeePelling]

Thank you

[@Robert-Bishop]

Shame about all the rules, but you still got some fantastic images. My faves were the very last and very first images. It's a subject I haven't shot before - will have to put it on the list. All the best for 2024 mate. 🎉

[@LeePelling]

Thanks mate , all these private security companies do it , but anywhere the public are given access to wether paid or otherwise then becomes public land and as we all know you can take images on any public land , but I just can't be doing with discussion these days. Its a nice area now , full of designer labels but some fantastic architecture around the area. Hope your well and happy new year to you too mate.

[@royhall1849]

Hi first time seeing your photgraphy really enjoyed it.

[@LeePelling]

Hi mate glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching mate 👍

[@royhall1849]

Is it a canon camera mirrowless u are using.

[@LeePelling]

@@royhall1849 yes mate the Canon Eos R

[@royhall1849]

I have canon 80d dsly.

[@DLT1964]

Blue hour shot does for me bud

[@LeePelling]

Thanks mate, I was really happy with that one as I was processing it, cheers mate.

[@AndrewWaltonPhotography]

Great shots, Lee. I really like the last shot with the light trails from the train. Grumpy security guards, I can never understand the rule where phones are OK but cameras aren't. If you were a terrorist you'd want to attract the least amount of attention so you wouldn't be using a DSLR! How are you finding the dji pocket 3?

[@LeePelling]

Thanks mate, i did enjoy the wander around Battersea and using the pocket 3 for the first time . So far i am really happy with it, its so small and compact compared to my old vlogging set up. That also has its down side, i dont shoot auto i set everything to manual and use the 180 degree rule, so need NDs . The NDs on this are so small and fiddly to set and i found judging the exposure difficult on such a small screen with no histogram etc. But the footage i think looks pretty good using the variable NDs with built in mist filter from Freewell. Some small niggles from a otherwise perfect camera for vlogging ! Happy New Year to you mate, hope your well, take care !

[@zeballos5757]

Nice pictures. Amazing that you can’t use a tripod in a public place. Or even use a camera in the shopping centre. Wtf

[@LeePelling]

It's actually privately owned but public are given access, I kind of understand the tripod but not the dslr , just baffles me , tha ks for watching !

[@zeballos5757]

@@LeePelling you are welcome. Thanks for the reply. I’m in Canada, no rules like that here. (Vancouver) Maybe inside some places but definitely not on the streets or landmark areas.
