This was the 1st shot I got of our day out at Cambridge. While researching potential spots for photography I came across this building while searching Google, However for some reason I could only find side on shots of the building like this http://www.radio86.co.uk/system/files/images/FitzwilliamMuseumWiki.jpg.
Using Google’s street view I could see that there was almost no space on the other side of the road, just a small walkway about 2 feet across. I was determined to get a front on shot of the building (which I was able to do thanks to my new amazing Tokina 11-16mm wide angled lens) but realised that I wouldn’t be able to set up my tripod in such a small walkway without pissing everyone off.
On the day I noticed a lamp post Directly centered in front of the building with a massive dip in front of it, so I wedged myself inbetween the lamp post and the 1 foot drop just infrot of it and used it as a tripod to get my 3 exposures. It was a pain in the ass getting it right without some kind of blur, but like a sniper playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 I took a deep breath held in and fired of the shots.
Didn't make it any easier that all the people were moving so there was alot of ghosting to sort out lol.
