Back in a Previous Life, a viewing platform on the South Bank in London had me exploring the sights on the other side of the Thames. I liked this juxtaposition of old and new, chaste stonework and bright colour. It might not be glazed, but it’s a window through which to get a new perspective on the more usual views of St. Paul’s Cathedral.
I love the look of those modern buildings on the riverside.

Very impressive – I love the look of old warehouses in port cities. Hope to visit Hamburg one day and see the Speicherstadt 🙂

Well hope to get there one day when we can safely travel again – not too promising at present but have to be hopeful! Maybe a couple of years time?

Nope. Just a shack on the river bank. Hope you had a lovely weekend.

Not sure I would have realised I was looking at St Paul’s – it’s a very different perspective. A rather lovely one!

Yes, but then most of those riverside London views are good in their different ways, I think.

An interesting juxtaposition of the buildings and also of the monochrome and the colour.

The different perspective for this image is all in the framing for this shot isn’t it, don’t you think?
