Lamp post on the Bridge

A bridge in London - another one! This time in Putney, with a pale sun struggling a little to shine behind a bed of clouds but gracefully illuminating the water of the Thames, seen here at low tide. The lamp post drew me straight back into the past as I crossed the bridge, and I felt it must have seen and known a great deal in its long, sedate life. I chose to shoot it from below against the sky (which itself was rather remarkable) to heighten its calm solidity, and in sepia because I was in a romantic, nostlagic mood. Location: London, England
