Summary
[edit]DescriptionCanary Wharf, London (6418087139).jpg |
Well here I was, in the middle of Canary Wharf at about 6am on Sunday morning. I wanted to get some good architecture and cityscape photos whilst it was still a little quiet. Then in stepped the security guards. I lost count of how many times I was stopped, searched and asked what I was doing there. I heard everything from “my tripod is a health and safety risk” to ”I could be casing the joint for a terrorist attack”. It wasnt until later that morning that, whilst I was leaving to go home, a parade of cars pulled up and outstepped an army of people for a ceremonial wedding. Clad with swords, they marched up to the front of one of the buildings and waltzed inside, completely ignored by the legion of security guards. Now, I have nothing against these wedding goers, they looked amazing. I would have got some photos if I hadnt been ordered to put my camera away and stop photographing the lovely buildings. But I ask you, is a guy with a camera more of a threat to security than an army of sword laden men? |
