London, 2025 — Through My Lens
.
This was the third and final must-have shot of this London trip.
Welcome to the Natural History Museum — the iconic Hintze Hall.
.
Same hall. New lens. Same ridiculous goal: zero people in the frame (because nothing says “social guy” like waiting for complete isolation).
.
Armed with a wide-angle lens, a 3D-printed stabilizer plate (yes, I’ve reached that level of gear geekery), and a dangerously persuasive grin, I set the plan in motion.
The mission? Outlast the tourists. Charm the guards. Stabilize like a pro. And capture Hintze Hall in all its empty, golden glory.
.
Did it work? Oh, it worked.
The guards bought into my heartfelt “just one last shot” plea. The plate held steady. The crowds cleared. And for a few rare minutes… the hall was mine.
.
And this? This might just be my favorite shot yet.
.
But don’t worry, Hintze Hall — we’re not done.
Every good story deserves a sequel.
