Early morning sun at Canary Wharf. Just hope all the splodges I've cloned out were on the window of the train and not my sensor!

Sorting out the out-of-date film by colour and type. This muggle magic is becoming addictive.

I'm not sure that what I want is very clear from a thumbnail, but I want eyelashes on my headlights. I assume that when the driver flashes the lights, the eyelashes blink. The addition of eyelashes to the car, is…

A visit to the Man Ray exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery. Interesting stuff, when you remember what the kit was like, but it was something of a crush. A bit saucy to sell so many tickets per time slot…

Not many opps today, but some nice light appeared early evening and I was able to add another cup to the Mapping Coffee Cups project. Tweaked with another DxO preset - this one is Nostalgia.

Fun in the darkroom at Greenwich College. I am probably a digital girl at heart, the instant gratification and the ability to take 360 shots without spending the best part of £70 on films are just two of the many…

Quick return visit to Mayfair. I'd like to say that it was because the light was so perfect, I could go and re-shoot the L1853 Mayfair pix. However, I would be lying. I had to return to Mayfair to take…

"Polysteria" - a cross between polystyrene and wisteria. This fence sports a rather wonderful wisteria during the summer months (or whenever wisteria blooms). Now a coffee cup spiked on a railing isn't a particularly unusual sight these days, but I…

And so to the Polo bar for breakfast and tea! Great celebration of the halfway point - it was slightly surreal to think that we'd been shooting for 12 hours and still had another 12 to go. Feeling refreshed, we…

Funnily enough, this was probably the most interesting hour photographically, simply because of the sheer variety. Having spent most of the previous hour in the bar, we needed to get a few shots under our belts - photo shots not…

This hour was definitely one of the best of the shoot! Mr P took us girls to the rather swishy cocktail bar "The Duck and Waffle" for cocktails and views. Surprisingly, we weren't challenged on dress-code, but (unsurprisingly) we were…

By now, the night shift is truly underway. Still awake and still warm, which is just as well as we haven't even reached the half-way point. We left the buzzing of Leicester Square and headed down St Martins Lane, past…

As we moved from one day to the next, the night shift headed off to Leicester Square - another part of London that never sleeps. The Casinos are open 24/7, but we made no attempt to go into them. The…

The problem with a 24 hour shoot in January is that you're shooting in low light for 16 hours, which can become quite challenging in terms of ISO and the contrast of the neon lights and shadows. I chose this…

Soho at night is like an all-night party. There is no sense of time and despite the cold, the place is packed. All sorts of interesting photo opps - the girls in T-Shirts (do they not know that it's minus…
