Photographer’s Note
Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, England over the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, which gives it its name. It has become an iconic symbol of London. Tower Bridge is one of several London bridges owned and maintained by the City Bridge Trust, a charitable trust overseen by the City of London Corporation.
Tower Bridge is sometimes mistakenly referred to as London Bridge, which is actually the next bridge upstream. A popular urban legend is that, in 1968 Robert McCulloch, the purchaser of the old London Bridge which was later shipped to Lake Havasu City, Arizona, believed mistakenly that he was buying Tower Bridge, but this was denied by McCulloch himself and has been debunked by Ivan Luckin, the seller of the bridge.

Mariano-
I believe this is actually the Tower Bridge. The London Bridge is quite modern looking. The original London Bridge now resides in Arizona.
Nice snapshot, non the less.
The light is a little flat, but it is a nice view.
Also, please include a note with your photos.
Thanks!

Hi Mariano
This is Tower Bridge. The exposure is okay but the light would have been better at a later time of day.
