Five Thousand Days

My Friday photography class walked over to the National Theatre to view the Five Thousand Days exhibition, a collection from British press photographers between 1989 and 2003.

Last flight of the Concorde

I love this shot of the Concorde, not only because of the composition, but also because of the description of how the photographer got the shot; standing out on the pontoon of a helicopter, fingers numb from the cold, he had to pan with the plane to freeze the motion.
