Challenge 753: Call me a taxi
London's only lighthouse is based on the Thames at Trinity Buoy Wharf, a fascinating regenerated area of workshops, cafes and artworks. Here's a view of one of the cafes: 
I was particularly intrigued by this London taxi viewed from beneath, mounted on top of the cafe with a tree growing out of it. It's not an angle you usually see. Can you place this taxi into an environment where the viewpoint makes sense? High res is here.  |

I don't have time to devote to this for a while. There is an obvious solution to this but by the time I get round to it I am sure that others will already have submitted the same thing.

This is so obvious it's embarrassing. Decided to get it out of the way immediately before I get too busy for anything.  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Nice Loyd and David. What's happening under the left light though David? The enlarged image isn't big enough to identify? _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

I'm going to try to submit at least a still this week. I've taken a job that requires me to start at 7 AM. I've been exhausted this week. Hopefully, I'll start to adjust soon. _________________ I'm still learning. |

Re: Challenge 753: Call me a taxi
Not sure I understand the question Dennis. The taxi is unchanged from the original except reflections. The image is small because the best background match I could find had terrible JPG artefacts so I had to keep things small ...... and, let's face it, the image is far too dull for me to get lost in trying to remove them all. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Re: Challenge 753: Steve McQueen meets his match.
I am sure we all remember the edge of the seat excitement that first time we saw the, now classic, car chase in Bullit! Got an unexpected couple of hours free time so another quickie.

Because brexit is the gift that keeps on giving .. for those fortunates not up to date on British politics the cabbie is the leader of the hard brexit party within the government, who has had secret talks with Steve Bannon far right former chief strategist to Trump.  _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |
