Before work/After work

I was using a metal pole to steady the camera and was utterly convinced I had the same one both times.

But clearly, the night shot shows I’m further to the left as you can see St Paul’s.

What3words should put you within a couple of metres of your before work shot and using an immovable piece of street furniture (posts etc. count!) as a support/brace/reference will get you spot on.

Interesting project, well executed.

Thank you.

I think I've got mostly in the right place for most. It's just without actually marking the ground in some way, I felt like I was nearer in some... :headbang:
 
IF you print at home, you could take a reference print of the before shot, unless the project is supposed to be on the same day! If that's the case, a phone shot of your feet, with relevant street furniture showing could help.

Many years ago, I did a similar thing but of the same landscape through the year. I used a notch in the tarmac of the layby as a datum for the tripod and a radio/TV mast on the horizon as a centre point to get the same framing. Using a 50mm prime kept the perspective the same!

With all the flipping graffiti every where, i doubt the would be any complaints about a small spot of highway marking spray. If you over complicated it they might think its a gas board marking or something.
 
I forgot I'd taken these a few years back.

Multi-shot panoramas of Greater London House - where I worked from 2020 to 2024

AM version was taken with a 5D Classic (wish I'd never sold it) and says it was at 24mm, so was either my old Tamron 24-70 or a Canon L.
PM version was a 5D3 and also at 24mm. By which time it would have been the Canon 24-70.

Don't have the RAWs anymore, so no idea how many photos made them up, but I know I was there a while.
