Isle of dogs

Taken yesterday, on another trip over London in a helicopter, this time the lighting was a little better, a lot of cloud about so it was difficult to get the whole of the isle of dogs in without shadow, but we had a good pilot, he used to fly the lynx in the air corpes, he could do some amazing tricks, beats Alton towers anyday, lol

 

"The Isle of Dogs is a former island in the East End of London that is bounded on three sides (east, south and west) by one of the largest meanders in the River Thames. It is almost bounded to the north by the South Dock (part of the old West India Docks.) This dock is separated from an inlet of the River Thames by some forty metres of infilled land. Except for this one small separation, access to the Isle of Dogs always necessitates crossing water by bridge or tunnel." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Dogs
