London's Skyline as seen from Hornsey Lane Bridge

I could not have taken this shot without Cris.

I have been wanting to take this picture for a long time. Recently I Googled it and found an article about the bridge. It pointed out that the bridge will soon have some very serious suicide fencing installed. This is because it is very high and sadly often used for this purpose. So taking a snap from there became a priority this week.

It was not easy! The railings already on the bridge are too high for my tripod. So I attempted handheld which obviously wasn't going to work for any type of long expo. Next I tried shooting from underneath the rails. This worked... after a while! It was a windy night and the camera was kind of balancing on a little support... Looots of blurry shots! However finally after a long struggle, I got this one. Hope you like :)
