London - Hammersmith And Thames Rowers

A lunchtime walk on a cold sunny day in November at Hammersmith

The strong lines of the wrought iron chains of Hammersmith Suspension Bridge built in 1887

Scullers with a crab from the bridge

An interesting angle of the bridge

A rowing eight at the about the halfway point of the course used by the Oxford Cambridge Boat Race

Some of the boat houses on this reach of the Thames with scullers in the background

London - River Thames Night Trip

An evening trip on the Thames early August.
 
Dramatic sky from Tower Pier before embarking
 
Canary Wharf Lights
 
Blackfrairs Railway Bridge
 
St Paul's Cathedral, Blackfriars Road and Railway Bridges and the Shard

Lights on Hungerford Footbridge and the London Eye
 
Photos a bit grainy, but it was from a moving boat, so could not use slow shutter speed, and needed high ISO
