Location
Took this on a trip to London in 2014. The Tower of London itself is a great day out.Time
Early morning, before the crowds got too big.Lighting
Natural lighting only.Equipment
Used my Canon 5D Mk3 and the travelling 24-105mm f4.Inspiration
For the centenary of the First World War, every poppy was hand placed by one of the Tower Guards. Each one represented a British soldier who died in the war and by the end of the year, the castle moat was filled.Editing
No post-processing, all natural.In my camera bag
Canon 5D Mk3, 50mm f1.4, travel 24.105mm f4. Changing what I take out around these lenses for different options.Feedback
Keep travelling and going to the obvious places, as well as those off the beaten track.
