Millenium Bridge and St Pauls Cathedral

Two for the price of one, combining 2 of probably the top 10 most photographed structures in London. When I got home from London on Sunday I transferred all my images to my computer and discovered I made quite a blunder. I’d shot the whole day in ISO800. What that
