Tower 42 - Open House Weekend, London 2011

Here's my quick short I shot while visiting Tower 42 as part of the 2011 London Open House Weekend. I've been trying for four years to get register quick enough to get one of the 40 places they allow for it every year, only to find out that you can normally book a table at Vertigo42 ( the restaurant at the top 42nd floor) and the minumum spend is £10 per person. The only thing is that it's only for Open House Weekend they allow to bring tripods.
All inall it was quite a view, even apart from the rainy weather, raindrops on dirty windows and only being at the 42nd floor for 10min.

Shot on hacked GH2 with kit 14-42mm and Nikon AI-S 180mm 2.8. Some shots normal,some crop mode.

Wow, that's a great view of London. I think I'll book a table at Vertigo 42 now! Thanks

Wow, that's amazing, lucky you. I never manage to get registered quick enough for these things because it's all gone by August. Anyway I can't complain as I visited many other places. My favourite this year was Leighton house. Amazing place. They should do an open house month, just a weekend is too short.Thanks for the video.
