Three London bridges - the Millennium Bridge in the foreground (with people), Southwark Bridge and Tower Bridge in the background. Taken at dawn one Saturday morning a few weeks ago - it looked as though the people on the bridge were on their way home after a very late night! Update: Just wanted to clarify that this hasn't been manipulated. The colour is as shot - the sun was about to burst over the horizon and the sky really was this colour. Honest.

I expect they were Nigel, judging by what they appear to have on! lucky them! :) - were you on your way home too? lol!

What a good idea to use sepia - it emphasises that early morning feel - and the perspective is excellent including all three bridges. Last time I was on the millennium bridge, which was in July, I was hurrying to find an underground so I could get to Euston on time to catch my train home. I did manage to capture some photos of St Paul's of course! lol!

...anyway excellent capture! love it!

I abolutely love your composition on this image, Nigel. Such clean, strong lines. And the color is wonderful. But, there seems to be a white outline. Did this come about with the color shift in the sky?

I like this look. I posted this comment after you added that it is as taken. What a excellent shot. Sometimes the real is better than the unreal, or something like that...............

Fabulous shot! It's the sort of picture I'm always trying to take and usually failing. This succeeds on all levels. Th light is fantastic as is the subject matter.
