Back to the capital and back to the beautiful Millennium bridge, we were slightly disappointed that it wasn't fully lit up but I managed to gain enough light from the 10 second exposure to give the bridge some resemblance of light.
Well done to great friend Mark for standing so perfectly still for the exposure enabling me to capture him as solid in the shot rather than ghostly
A serene sunrise on the South bank, just the sound of the early morning joggers and the peregrines calling from their perch high up in the chimney tower at the Tate.

The London Millennium Footbridge, is a steel suspension bridge for pedestrians crossing the River Thames in London, linking Bankside with the City of London. Construction began in 1998, and it initially opened in June 2000.
Londoners nicknamed it the "Wobbly Bridge" after pedestrians experienced an alarming swaying motion on its opening day. The bridge was closed later that day and, after two days of limited access, closed again for almost two years while modifications and repairs were made to keep the bridge stable. It reopened in February 2002.
Well, we all know the beautiful pictures of this bridge looking towards St. Paul's Cathedral.
When I was in London, hundreds of people were on the bridge. That's why I chose this unusual perspective of the Millennium Bridge.
Located in downtown Chicago, the 24.5 acre park is a center for art, music, architecture, and landscape design.

It is located on Heygate Bank on the road from Rosedale Abbey to Egton Bridge which takes you 8 miles over the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors which in August turns into a sea of purple heather.

From Wikipedia
The Millennium Bridge, officially known as the London Millennium Footbridge, is a steel suspension bridge for pedestrians crossing the River Thames in London, England, linking Bankside with the City of London. It is owned and maintained by Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. Construction began in 1998, and it initially opened on 10 June 2000.
Londoners nicknamed it the "Wobbly Bridge" after pedestrians experienced an alarming swaying motion on its opening day. The bridge was closed later that day and, after two days of limited access, it was closed again for almost two years so that modifications and repairs could be made to keep the bridge stable and stop the swaying motion. It reopened in February 2002.
The bridge is located between Southwark Bridge and Blackfriars Railway Bridge. Its southern end is near the Globe Theatre, the Bankside Gallery, and Tate Modern, while its northern end is next to the City of London School below St Paul's Cathedral. The bridge's alignment is such that a clear view (i.e. a "terminating vista") of St Paul's south façade is presented from across the river, framed by the bridge supports.
