hello Figen,
certainly an often-photographed location, but you provide quite interesting version of it. the deep blue sky always goes well with the golden lights of the evening, but what I like best is the river in the foreground, the motion blurr adds a beautiful dreamy feeling. nice work.

best,
Kristine

Merhaba Figen,
A wonderful view of a late blue hour, very achieved technique and aesthetics wise. The warm colours of the ilumination of the façade, the glow of the sky behind and the reflection on the water is just great. I guess that part that isn't lighted on the left of the Big Ben makes it unique, as it must be caused by an electricity failure.
Regards, José.

Hello Figen,

A classical subject and skillfully handled!
Excellent low light capture with pin sharp details, and the 8 secs contributes this silky water surface...
Attractive colour palette, well framed!

Greetings,

Merhaba Figen,

What an astonishingly beautiful image of the London skyline, dominated by the House of Parliament, Big Ben and lurking behind, Westminster Abbey. The shimmering reflection of the structure, in an unusually serene Thames, reflects itself a flawless light management. You've used a small aperture, and a slow shutter speed to achieve this beauty. Thanks for letting us all witness the scene vicariously.

Have a good weekend,

Bulent

Perfect handling of aperture, exposuring time and shutter's speed created an amazing result! So, the light management is very well done and the details are terrific! The contrast of the light and the dark part of the picture is impressive and the colour of the sky is so attractive!

Thanks for letting us enjoy the view!

Best regards,
Athanasios.
