    A couple of weeks ago I spent an evening at the London Trocadero arcade, with the sole purpose of marvelling at the diverse and eclectic group of people who spend time there. Everyone from your uber cool Japanese kids, to middle aged white men, through to families and kids.

    The most heavily populated area always seems to be around the dance games, with upwards of 30 people hanging out, taking turns to have a go. I was there for about an hour just watching the incedible scenes; the people who play seem to know the moves off by heart as they barely even have to look at the screen. Many of them even have dance routines rehearsed, making it less of a game, and more of a performance. It really is something to behold.

    Anyway I took a bunch of photos, most of which turned out not as good as I hoped but I guess thats all part of learning to work in low light conditions. Lesson learned.
