Urban landscape: the wheel of night

LONDON EYE, LONDON, ENGLAND

The London Eye, originally the Millennium Wheel, is a cantilevered observation wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames in London.
It is the world’s tallest cantilevered observation wheel and the most popular paid tourist attraction in the United Kingdom with more than three million visitors annually.
My wife and I went on the wheel in 2017, but skipped it during our 2025 visit because each ticket would have cost us $60 CDN.
On our last night in the city, I slipped out with my photography equipment to capture a long exposure (30 seconds!) of the wheel, reflected in the Thames River
