Great shots of London. I didn’t know that the London Eye rotates very slowly. Interesting…London is a fabulous city. They’ve gotten a bit “crazy” lately with implementing some strict guidelines for taking photographs, but hopefully they’ll snap out of it!

The construction of the London Eye was a reall fantastic feat of engineering. Even for the Londoners, the Eye is a great way of admiring the diversity of the London landscape
