Terrific perspective, Alun ... in this photograph one really gets a sense of how much of London is visible from the upper reaches of The Eye!

I would like to take ride in that one. I was in London in 97 and back then you guys did not have that EYE. Well done

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom
I might have been on Westminster Bridge at the very moment . . but, yes, London looks both grand but so vulnerable from up there I always think.

Michael from Wuppertal, Germany
Nice shot, is it worth to take a tour? I am going to London by the end of may...
19 May 2008 9:04pm
@Michael: I will just say at £15 it is expensive for what it is, but if the weather is ok it is a must do. Its great. Cheers Michael :)
Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
I confirm it's expensive... but i find that it's a wonderful way to discover London, and the view is just fabulous. And it's easy to take picture from the air, more than in a little plane by exemple
19 May 2008 10:13pm
@Evelyne Dubos: Yes it is expensive but you have to do it. The views like you say Evelyne are fantastic :)
