May 2019 — A night view across the River Thames captures Blackfriars Bridge illuminated in cool tones beneath the glass towers of London’s financial district. The skyline features some of the city’s most recognizable modern landmarks — including the Leadenhall Building (the “Cheesegrater”), 22 Bishopsgate, and the distinctive curved façade of 20 Fenchurch Street, known as the “Walkie-Talkie.” Red aviation lights and construction cranes trace the ongoing vertical growth of the Square Mile, while reflections shimmer on the Thames below. The composition underscores the contrast between Victorian bridge engineering and the contemporary architecture reshaping London’s historic core.
