Dear friends,
thought I should share another from my theme "Bridges across the Thames".
This is Southwark Bridge. The exposure was taken in August last year.
I have posted another shot of Southwark Bridge on TL before (here).

In this more recent of the two, I kind of liked the reflections of light (for example the green) as well as patterns still visible on the water surface despite a shutter speed of 10 seconds - I think this was the result of the water being really rough as it was a windy night.

My exposure settings here were: Aperture: F/10, Shutter: 10 seconds, ISO160. Machine: Sony R1.

Very minimal PP - USM, Saturation+/Contrast.
Thank you for your visit :-)

Hello Daniel,

A beautiful addition to your Bridges across the Thames Theme. Perfect time of the day indeed to capture the gradient of blue in the sky without havving to use a too long exposition.

Well done !

Exceptional shot Daniel! Very nice! I like all the rich color here, even though lights are low. The blue hour is my favorite of all! You got it just perfect! I, too, love that green on the bridge! Really a nice mixup of colors!

Hello Daniel,
Fantastic colours and light in this night shot. Superb sharpness and an amazing effect with the reflections on the water. I love the stars of light of the lamps under the bridge.
Congrats again, Daniel.

Good morning Daniel,
This is super fine, a high quality image, lovely blue sky, the star-like effect is pronounced, and the reflection is attractive with a kaleidoscope of colors. Regards...Danilo

Hello Daniel,

Very nice photos. Colors and sharpness great. Congratulations!

Very well exposed image - great starlights as usual.. If anything I think the composition has a little too much sky and I would have rotated the camera downwards to get a little more of those wonderful smooth reflections in the water..
I've just been in Europe for a few days - I'd forgotten how much longer the 'blue hour' lasts as you head to the temperate latitudes.

Nice work again.

David

Hi Daniel,
Wonderfully captured image here. Color quality and saturation are great and the detail is sharp as ever.
Maybe this one is just a tick over-exposed? Some of the whites, left column of the bridge for example, have lost detail.
Nothing much, and considering the range of light in the photo and the exposure, pretty minor, but visible.
Still though, a good and very inspiring shot, as always.
Thanks,
Wilt

Wow! You're the master of this!!! Awesome!!!

Hi Daniel, Your bridges of London are a special series. Your timing at dusk enhances the image so well. Good POV and the reflections make it a real stand-out in the TL site. TFS. Murray.
