my name is mwd: Red shift

A photo looking down the sweep of a curve in the River Thames as it heads into central London. The sky is overcast, and below that you can see the London sklyine with many tall buildings. In the foreground you look down to see the river sweep past Vauxhall on the right and Chelsea on the left, the latter being full of buildsings made from brick.

For my birthday Laura took us to ride the elevator at Battersea Power Station, which as a Pink Floyd fan and a Giles Gilbert Scott fan, ticked off two boxes at once. From the top you get a very different view of London compared to being atop Tate Modern or from the viewing level on The Shard, being more on the fringes of the most dense part of the city.

Not my best photo of London, but I liked the red tint to this part of the city from all the brickwork.
