I was quite keen.
But the bike is washed now, the wash water turned to ice hours ago & it's only going to get colder, so I'd prefer not to get salt all over it again. :( so I'm out.
And your avatar confuses me, I keep thinking you're Billy :???:

I still plan to go. No idea what time though yet.

First here it seems. And I can confirm it's cold :)

Re: Soho New Years day night ...... 1st Jan 2010
 

Well that was a giggle, and you weren't first, me and Jo had been manfuly hiding in the cafe across the road holding the nice hot tea, and trying to warm up ;). But it did take us a few minutes to get over to you in fairness :)

Lovely to see the few that we could before the cold got the best of us and we ran for the warmth of the Underground:rolleyes:

Oh....oh...can I play.......I was there 2002 mid Jan if I remember right......:)

caught a cople of patches of ice on the way home, but apart from an increase in revs no real drama, the old toes were feeling it a bit by the time I got in though.


Cheers Mark

Sorry I didn't make it. Mr LPH was too hungover to move from the sofa so we stayed in and ate pizza.

Re: Soho New Years day night ...... 1st Jan 2010
 

Oh no, I missed you! :(

And thank you for yours.

Well as said a bit cold, but dry enough, after an hours ride around; Frith St saw my arrival, Soho is a rather unique challenge when it comes to flashless photography; it's fast/slow/bright & dim all at the same time a fine balance between exposure and blur when doing handheld (not always achieved as you'll see), makes for "interesting" results, but I do enjoy it, so OK not the best but it kind of suits the occasion; anyway here's a few from the night.

I love this B&W effect, OK some of the detail and shading is lost, but adds some real drama to a shot I think.
