Parliament

C59F0411.jpgThe hotel we used when we were in London was located just across the river from the Houses of Parliament. This gothic structure is instantly recognizable to many. I have been inside on a few occasions for events and the interior is as impressive as the exterior. It also varies in age with some parts much older than others such as Westminster Hall. On this trip we weren’t paying the place a visit and for most of the time there, didn’t really see much of it other than in the distance.

The morning light is better for getting shots on the river side so this was a good time. Combine it with Westminster Bridge in the foreground and there is something to work with. I actually prefer shooting it at night. The lighting on the bridge and the buildings is pretty neat. However, that opportunity had passed so this would have to do.
