What good are wonderful cameras if one can’t get out into the big wide world, and get snapping at inspiring, emotionally charged or beautiful images?

That’s why, last week, Canon invited a number of magnificent photographers from across the world wide web, to a ‘big day out’ to try out the Canon 5D Mark II camera – and shoot some magnificent images across London Town.

Visiting, amongst other places, the British Museum, the London Eye and Trafalgar Square – a whole heap of images were shot – and all of them can be seen in our official flickr group.

From battling the elements at Trafalgar Square (pictured courtesy of Phill Price), to the swirling colours of a gaudy carousel horse at dusk, do pop over to take a look at all the images over here – and let the artists know what you think.
