London from the Eye

I took this shot from the London Eye last November but I have just processed it.

So what do you think?

I think it would be great (it is a great view) if it could be lightened up. I looked at the larger Flickr version and it is dark. Then again it could be the old CRT monitor I have here at work.

Very nice shot

I really like it, Alf. It almost has a vintage feel to it, lots of atmosphere. For me I would lose the area of light in the middle of the shot and just have the cloudy sky. Its just I can't help but be distracted by it and the brightness of it doesnt do the rest of the shot any favours.

Yeah, that is what I meant, Alf :-)

I didn't want to have the photo for more than 24hrs because it wasn't my shot, if you know what I mean!

I only just saw it and I dont have an issue with it what I do describe them as not my shot.
