‘As a photographer I mostly enjoy reflection images – that’s my trigger, if I see an opportunity for a reflection, to give a different view from the norm. I also like playing around with different apps on my phone, to try and achieve ‘standard camera’ effects.

I took this image as part of a challenge in a Facebook photography group I’m a member of, on the theme of time. It was taken at One Canada Square in Canary Wharf, on my iPhone 13 Pro Max, with the 77mm telephoto lens, using the excellent Even Longer app, and a small pocket tripod.

The app was set to three seconds to get the effect on the people walking around. I love that an image like this can be captured on a mobile phone! I edited the raw image on the handset in the iOS Photos app, applied a small crop and added the mono filter to give the final image.’
