An old shot I've just got round to processing - (I'm very slow)

This week is the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire of London so this one seemed appropriate - I've posted a wider shot of this evening before with the old wooden posts in the foreground.

Here I'd zoomed in to 55mm to get more detail in Tower Bridge & the City but had to create a pano to include the Shard & Tower 42.

I particularly liked the burning red reflections in the windows of the Thames Clipper & Tower 42 in this one.

One of those grey overcast days where I wasn't expecting any colour but the Sun broke under the cloud right at the end.

The sky colour was so intense that the raw file was too saturated to need any increase.

The Great Fire of London was started in Pudding Lane by the Royal Baker (inadvertently) in 1666 - so they say.

Luckily very few people were thought to have been hurt & the fire succeeded in sterilising most of the run down slum filled bits of London that had been ravaged by the Great Plague.

For some reason Great Fires, Puddings & Bakers brought 'The Great British Bake Off' to mind.

If you're a fan of the show like my wife - (although I suspect the real reason she watches it is to see the steely eyed scouser - Paul Hollywood) - & you're a serious baker - be sure to turn off the oven before going to bed :))

Thanks to everyone for taking the trouble to view comment or fave.

a few buildings near the Thames forming attractive lines caught my eye.

dieses Bild möchte ich meiner lieben Freundin Sylvia widmen... mit herzlichsten Genesungswünschen und als kleiner Vorgeschmack auf unsere gemeinsame Reise ;-)

My view as I cycled over London Bridge this morning

Die berühmteste Brücke der Welt.

Die Tower Bridge wurde 1894 eröffnet und verbindet seither das auf der Südseite der Themse gelegene Southwark mit dem auf der Nordseite gelegene Tower Hamlets. Die Brücke ist knapp 50 Meter lang und ist eine Klapp- und Hängebrücke.

Walkie-Talkie building, 20 Fenchurch St, London

Wikipedia: This is a commercial skyscraper in London that takes its name from its address on Fenchurch Street, in the historic City of London financial district. It has been nicknamed "The Walkie-Talkie" because of its distinctive shape, said to resemble a two-way radio handset. Construction was completed in spring 2014, and the three-floor "sky garden" was opened in January 2015. The 38-storey building is 160 m tall. The Sky Garden is on the top two floors and is open to the public
