I have got quite in to exploring the Thames Foreshore at low tide to find different viewpoints. On Saturday I used the Custom House steps on the north bank for the first time. These are located half way between London Bridge and Tower Bridge at the end of Water Lane with access from the Thames Path. I found them through research online which was confirmed on Google Street View. It was also necessary to check the tides to find a day when low tide coincided with blue hour though in this case the weather didn’t oblige and it was more like grey hour but at least it was dry. The old timber poles may be the remains of jetties which formed a much more extensive structure for ships to pull alongside parallel to the shore. HMS Belfast can be seen on the far left and London Bridge on the far right.
The picture was taken on a tripod and with a Sony A68 with a Sigma 10-20 zoom at 10mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing for HDR. The picture was enhanced with HDR processing using tone Photomatix 6 and Tone Balancer setting for a natural look. The Plus 2 EV image was used to increase shadow detail. Topaz clarity was used for more detail. In Photoshop the lens correction tool was used to straighten verticals. The heal and clone tools were used to tidy including removing 2 cranes near the shard. Some adjustments were made to hue saturation to bring up saturation overall in the reflections only using a layer mask. Various brightness adjustment layers were used with masks to get various areas just right.

Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London built between 1886 and 1894. The bridge crosses the River Thames close to the Tower of London and has become an iconic symbol of London. Because of this, Tower Bridge is sometimes confused with London Bridge, situated some 0.5 mi (0.80 km) upstream. Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation. It is the only one of the Trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, as its northern landfall is in Tower Hamlets.
February morning hike along the icy shore of the North Thames river in London, Ontario.
Thanks for viewing and have a great day!
The river Thames—affectionately known as Old Father Thames—rises from four headstreams in the picturesque Cotswold Hills of south-central England. As it meanders 215 miles [350 km] eastward, it is joined by other rivers until it finally pours through an estuary into the North Sea.
This is the stretch of the Thames passing through Oxford with sunrise views over a cool and misty Port Meadow..
My sister Jan and I spent an evening walking along the Thames Path (Riverside Walk) London and come across these fabulous images.
The City of London wanted to replicate etchings, engravings, drawings and lithographic prints of Southwark Bridge onto tiles for their pedestrian underpass (north side) of Southwark Bridge.
The traditional Victorian panel layouts were printed sympathetically so they looked like traditional 'Delftware' on Victorian tiles.
Shad Thames, London.
Taken during a walkabout a few weeks ago with the chaps, namely Andy Searle, Ian Danbury, and Daniel Coyle.
This was possibly my only image of the evening that i shot with the sole intention of a monochrome process..unusual for me, although I generally believe that night shoots in London really do look better left to colour..with the odd exception ;-)

i thought there was a nice framing of the barrier through the concrete window and leading lines along the tunnel.

This is a photograph of the Thames river as seen from the Millennium bridge. The reflections came out ok here and I was surprised the picture was sharp, as the bridge was very shaky indeed.
The Shard and Tower bridge can be seen in the distance.
" Dame Vera Lynn ", one of the new Polish built diesel hybrid ferries connecting North & South Woolwich on the River Thames, in the background, the mighty skyscrapers of London's business district.
A camera club evening out in Canary Wharf and to the Thames in London's Isle of Dogs (so called because Henry VIII kept his hounds here). Amazingly good weather especially after all the dreadful stuff we have had recently. This is a view from an upper walkway down to the river with views of the City of London in the distance.
