We spent 2 quick days in London to kick off a European vacation. Out of the hundreds of photographs I took while in England, these are my favorite ten images. I share the cameras I used, what was going through my mind when taking the photograph, and what I might have done differently if I had the chance to take the image all over again.

I found the best photo spot at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport completely by accident — a window at the end of the E concourse that gave me one of my favorite shots of the whole trip. Here's how I found it, what I learned shooting there, and the gear that made it possible.
