… the Walkie-Talkie, the Scalpel, the Cheesegrater and 22 Bishopsgate, now masking the Gherkin, all disfiguring the City skyline :-/

A shot from my last trip to London in June just to break up the flowers a bit!
I took this from the Millennium Bridge- if you've been on this bridge you will know it shakes, a lot. People walking, running, skateboarding or just breathing, will make you, your camera and tripod quite unsteady. So if this isn't quite as sharp as it could be, that is why. Nothing at all to do with the wine I'd had to pass the time WAITING (waiting....waiting....) for it to get dark (whose idea was it to do a nighttime shoot on the longest day of the year?!)
Regno Unito Londra, Bankside, Autunno 2014
ll Millennium Bridge è un ponte pedonale in acciaio, sospeso sul Tamigi a Londra. Collega Bankside con la City di Londra. Il ponte è allineato alla cattedrale di St. Paul in modo tale che quest’ultima si trovi nella cornice immaginaria composta dai supporti del ponte. Il ponte è stato il primo attraversamento del fiume pedonale sul Tamigi nel centro di Londra dopo più di un secolo. Ha due piloni ed è composto da tre sezioni principali di 81, 144 e 108 metri con una lunghezza complessiva di 325 metri. E può sopportare un carico di lavoro di 5.000 persone contemporaneamente.
The Millennium Bridge is a steel suspension bridge for pedestrians crossing the River Thames in London, linking Bankside with the City of London. The bridge alignment is such that a clear view of St Paul's south façade is presented from across the river, framed by the bridge supports. The bridge has been the first pedestrian river crossing over the Thames in central London for more than a century. It has two river piers and is made of three main sections of 81, 144 and 108 metres with a total structure length of 325 metres. And it can support a working load of 5,000 people at one time.
Fantastic view of Saint Paul´s and The City from the Tate Gallery!
Thanks for your visits, comments and faves!
Have a great weekend!
:-)
The image consists of five bridges really but as I caught all of the reflections as well I doubled the count up. The bridges are; tyne bridge, swing bridge, high level bridge, Queen Elizabeth II bridge and King Edward VII bridge. When I look at the image I can also see the redheugh bridge in the distance as well but I will stick with the title ten bridges..
The Millenium Footbridge over the Thames going south, looking at the Tate Modern Gallery on the right.
The Boomerang is a new residential skyscraper, officially called One Blackfriars, on the south side of Blackfriars Bridge. In addition, there are so many well-known buildings and bridges in this picture of the Thames in London, looking upriver.
A brief Interlude in the April showers allowed me this LE Capture of the Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside.
The barge that was set free from its moorings around 50 years ago and got stuck on the weir outside the flour mill in Castleford.
The footbridge was built as part of Castleford's regeneration programme and featured on a Channel 4 documentary hosted by Kevin McCloud.
Can't help photographing the Millennium Bridge but try to get a different take each time. This is with the camera body just sitting on the floor.
