22. October, 2009 - Westminster

Heading to another event at Parliament, I decided to leave our flat early enough in order to have plenty of time to walk along the Thames, rather than use the Tube.

As I passed the London Eye, the setting sun hit it and set it on fire--visually and figuratively, of course.

Walking along the Thames in the dusk was gorgeous.

It seemed that half the city was bathed in light, while the other half was silent and restful.

The tall spires of Parliament seemed to continue forever, and I managed to take this picture right as the lights in the street lamps came on.

A glimpse of another building by Parliament, which this time, was protester-free.
