Another photograph of the London Eye October 2008

Photograph taken on the 27th October 2008 mid afternoon, I should explain the photos I am now posting are ones I forgot about due to illness, and now after nearly five years would like to share with you. I love taking photos showing only part of a structure or building, seeing nearly everyone takes the whole thing, I love the pods just hanging from the sides giving the impression they could drop off at anytime. Please enjoy and comment as you see fit.

London 22nd October 2008 London Eye

This photograph was taken on a cold October day in 2008 mid morning from under the London Eye, the pod in on the way up and part of Westminster Bridge can be seen in the background. I love taking photos showing only part of a structure. Other photographs will be published later showing part and more of the London Eye.

Tower of London October 2008

Tower bridge London 2008 photo from the embankment side on a cold grey day. Like most people do I did not want the whole bridge just the beautiful curved wrought iron work leading to one of the two towers itself. You would see the same looking from the other side of the river Thames.  I think Tower Brigade looks better photographed in sections,  just my opinion.

River Thames 2008 Seagull

It's nice to rest my wings whilst the river Thames flows past beneath me.  Taken in 2008 in London the small part of the bridge the seagull resting on leads to St Paul's.  Made a change to photograph something other then a London tourist site.

Flight over London

Looked up saw this and thought why not. taken in London closer to o2 looking towards Canary Wharf on a clear sunny day in 2008 funny what you find and keep in your photo collection. We went inside the o2 and a few photos will be posted later the building was far bigger then I had envisaged.

Saint Paul's Cathedral 2008?

Saint Paul's Cathedral amongst the cranes and over the roof tops a different angle of this famous building! I think this was taken in 2008 and have now only just found the photo. This one building never fails to move me, makes me stop and think how many people from around the world have seen it, entered it, and prayed in it.

Police launch On the River Thames London

Police launch on the river Thames in London this photo was taken a few years ago and being in London a few weekends back made me remember it as I watched another police launch cruising the river. 

This visit we enjoyed afternoon tea in Harrods was lovely for Pat and I to be spoilt along with two friends. However Christmas shopping in Hamleys toy shop with it's five floors is  not my idea of fun.
