I'll be in London and environs with my wife May 20-June 5 or so. It's
vacation, but there's a schedule. If you would like to meet for a drink or
dinner or something, that could be fun.

You (and anyone else who wants) can email me your phone number
(international format) and I'll see if I can call when I know where I'll
be
free for a time. I'll try to organize something late afternoon on a week
end
or some such. I'm not sure what the agenda is yet.

Oh well. I am informed the She Who Sets The Schedule that the schedule has
no slack for meeting people. I'll put the phone numbers in my phone, but I'm
not expecting a chance to catch my breath. :-)

Actually, part of the problem was her saying "But I don't know when it'll be
sunny, and we need to take *pictures*!" :-)

London! She needs to lower her expectations.
Tell her that you can take nice pictures in the rain as well.

Tell her it's "artistic" to take rainy photos. ;-)

Actually, scrub that. Tell her it's London, and hence not worth
photographing in the first place... :-P

We've been there for a couple of days before, so we're fully aware that what
you all call "partly sunny" we'd call "pouring rain". In San Diego, "partly
sunny" means there's a cloud. In London, "partly cloudy" means you can tell
which direction the sun is shining from by looking at the clouds.
That's the problem. It might be sunny at any moment, no matter how brief, at
which time PHOTOGRAPHS! :-)

To much sun gives you to harch shadows. Partly cloudy to overcast is
often prefered by most serious photographers.
And then, the rain will add a nice glossy sheen that can be prety
esthetic, if you are ready to work with, and use, it to your advantage.
And London been London, you expect rain each and every day... ;P

You never know it might be sunny for your whole trip.
