This photograph was taken at dusk from a spot at the North bank of River Thames near to Millennium Bridge. The lights on the Blackfriars Pier for river boats were already switched on. The Blackfriars railway bridge, with its distinctive illuminated and colourful roof panels, could be seen across the photograph. The One Blackfriars apartment building, a 50-storey 170m high tower, stood tall on the South bank.
The long exposure photograph captured the light trails of a river boat approaching the Blackfriars Pier. These light trails provided dynamism to the beautiful urban scape.
Best wishes for a relaxing Sunday!

The Palace of Westminster and the Elizabeth Tower or Big Ben as most people know it. Big Ben was actually the second bell made for the tower. The first was made just down the road from where I live back in August 1856. It was the biggest bell ever made at the time and after being transported to London by ship it cracked during testing. It was broken down and recast as 'Big Ben'. That was not the end of it though, the bell again cracked and remains cracked to this date!
A few weeks back, on what started out as a misty morning, I decided I'd rush up to London to see if I could take advantage of the mist for some architectural photography. Well, I'm not really someone that is very good at rushing anywhere and so it goes without saying that by the time I got into London the mist had all but gone. There is very slight evidence of it here in the distant Canary Wharf architecture on the right and those buildings on the left but that was about as much mist as I got that morning. The view here is of the HMS Belfast, a second world war Royal Navy warship permanently moored in the Thames as a tourist attraction. In the background of course the always photogenic Tower Bridge.
