| One of Tower Bridge's main towers, with the high-level pedestrian
walkway above.
| A cross-walk near Tower Bridge. I guess it gets a lot of visitors from
France.
Incidentally, the signs inside the exhibit were
translated into half a dozen languages (but only one is on the crosswalk
besides English).

part of the original design.
| Typical government inaction. (View the full-sized image to read the

| A sign about London Bridge. (View the full-sized image to read it.)
The first panel is interesting in itself.

| An animated movie showing the construction of the bridge. In addition
to the preciseness and exactness of the drawings, I like the animation

climbing on it.

| Many bridges connect buildings above Stad Thames, near Tower Bridge. I
combined two pictures of different exposures (using photomatrix) to get
this images.
