London's best photo spots, probably...

[@iamaaronsmith]

there needs to be a app made where photographers can pinpoint their fav places or spots to take pictures

[@Channel8eight]

I go to London usually about 5 times a year from California for work, except last year when I went only March, Sept/October. Was there in May/June and will be back on July 10-31st. Since COVID I do the quarantine routine until my Day 5 test comes back. Anyhow, I travel globally all year and London is my favorite place on earth. The people there are amazing to me, the potential for photography is great. I stay at the Ned and love it- I got some great photos in the Ned one early morning, like 3AM as the place was getting cleaned up after a thirsty Thursday- The staff are well known to me or vice versa, so I can walk around no hassle- amazing place when empty. The financial district is awesome on Sunday AM before around 8-9 am it is virtually deserted. Anyhow, another great video I love London the history alone is worth it 100%

Was in London about 3 years ago, definitely Southbank for Street Photography. Thanks for your tips James

[@TheBartgry]

I admire your cinematographic proficiency 👌🏼

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+TheBartgry Thanks mate 👍🏼☺

[@RightTurnsAndLeftovers]

Love the video tour of London and photo samples. This should be one of your new series.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Right Turns And Leftovers thanks so much, that's an idea! It might have to be put together over a few years though ☺

[@nota4802]

Yeah Canary Wharf is one place I get stopped by guards every single time I go there, can't fully blame them ( security reasons and private buildings ), But once you verify your identity and the purpose of the picture, the rest is quite straightforward :)

[@GaryEtchell]

Brilliant video. Love both the content and delivery.

[@walkexplorecapture9143]

Some good pointers there, cheers and thanks for sharing

[@matthiasbrenner5479]

I love your humour, man! Just discovered your channel a week ago, lots to catch up!

[@GaryStockton]

Some great recommendations there James. We hope to spend a few days there next summer. Love Camden and the Camden Market also Notting Hill and Paddington area. Went up in the London Eye and got so ill at the height, looked at my London map the entire time.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Gary Stockton ahh thanks Gary! ☺I know the feeling. Yeah Camden is great, luckily my brother lives there so I make myself at home on the sofa as much as possible 👍🏼

[@b3naqua]

That shoe wall 😍😍😍

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Ben Aqua ☺Its quite something mate 👍🏼

[@uglyigor3055]

damn I missed your videos man. Thanks for putting the snaps into the video. Love it!

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

No worries buddy! :)

[@SidBonkers51]

Another great video James, anyone planning a trip to London could benefit from Google Earths - Street View, as all of London is in 3D so you can literally walk along the Thames and spy out good spots for photography.

[@thadmoore1870]

Excellent, Ill be there in a few weeks. Ill check few of them out.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Thad Moore Nice one mate! Any questions let me know ☺👍🏼

[@steelyscott]

Great video and tips on London's interesting spots to shoot, James! Thank you so much. 👍

[@akshitapaliwal5003]

Loved it

[@Alright_Dave]

Love your videos James they are really entertaining funny and educational keep up the good work 😀👌👍👏👏

[@adrianthomas2132]

Nice one

[@shakesbits5220]

Great, now I miss London even more :-) Btw you probably know it, but in case not: Just outside of Finsbury park is an entrance to a running track that used to be a railroad track. There are (well were, when I left three years ago anyway) still some old platforms and lots of street art in the old underpasses/bridges. The path goes almost all the way up to Highgate.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Shakesbits oooh, I didn't know that no, I'll have to check them out at some point 🙂

[@shakesbits5220]

James Popsys this is the entrance to the path: goo.gl/maps/SnPB3472L8n I also liked the canals on the East towards Stratford... aaahh I wish I had had all the gear I have now, when I was living there *sigh*

[@juanmanuelfabresbriones5378]

i loved it!

[@prodbyscars]

4:15 is so good. Is that photoshopped?

[@greatest011]

great video i'll definitely be checking out a few of those spots!

[@thesteve121]

Have you managed to sort out the autofocus settings on the G80 or are you using manual focus now? Just curious - seems spot on now.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

Hey mate, Yes! Just single point continuous in the middle of the frame. Face detect has it's problems I find - like if you move... :)

[@jamesmechie1233]

Another great video! Though I dread to think how long you spent on the Tube...

[@xar1fx]

Nice video James. Planning my first trip to London. What is the tripod you recommend? TIA

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

Something light :)

[@andrearock71]

I love your videos!

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

Thanks so much Andrea! :)

[@creativediaries1698]

Really helpful video man 👍🏻

[@SteedDigital1]

But what's the blue tripod on your pack in this video?

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

Can't remember the brand name but it's the exact same as a '3 legged thing' :)

[@luzsa9386]

Hey nice video! What lens did you use for the photos? Thank you!

[@TomBarker44]

Great video! Have you thought about adding the focal length to the info you display for each image...?

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

Thanks Tom! I haven't but definitely can in future if that's of interest :)

[@frozencamellover]

That was also my immediate thought when watching the video

[@Noksus]

Yeah the focal length info is probably more useful anyway

[@finch2k]

This is a great video, here's a slice of pizza 🍕

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Nicholas McCreath 😂😂Cheers! I needed that 👍🏼

[@finch2k]

For real though, I've found your stuff super entertaining and you cool in front of a camera - filling a nice void between Kai, Peter Mckinnon and you got a love for Mirrorless - got a subscriber for life right here 👌 If you come to Berlin and wanna shoot - hit me up :D

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Nicholas McCreath thanks man, super nice of you to say! I love Berlin but haven't been with a camera before! When I do I'll let you know 👍🏼

[@FredoDeSmet]

If you two are in Brussel (or other places in Belgium (apart from Bruges) anytime soon, I'd be happy to share some pizza too.

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Fredo De Smet thanks bro! I hope I am 👍🏼

[@rasmuserichslang8972]

what lens did you use?

[@tjompen1968]

Fun =)

[@JamesPopsysPhoto]

+Thomas Hedlund Thanks Thomas 👍🏼☺

[@villageblunder4787]

[@januszgajusz1905]
