 Shot from Embankment Bridge, looking North-East to Waterloo Bridge and the City. The passenger ferry terminal is visible bottom-left.
Not much editing - some selective curves to even out the lighting, levels, brightness / contrast, neat image, USM. I didn't add a border cos I didn't want to lose any of the detail to the sides...similarly not sure about the text...hmm

Interesting - but not corny enough for my impression of a postcard! You had Westminster behind you...!

For once the River Thames doesn't look like a dump. Nice composition and your expose shows very little movement. - 7

the thing (a dock, i guess) in the lower left hand corner is hard to identify. this really distracts from the wonderful skyline in the background. might have made for a better picture had you not included it and cropped a little closer in the top left hand corner.

nice shot. Not sure how well it will do due to the large dark areas.I would also say that there isnt a interesting subject to the photo. The thames further downstream in Richmond or Ham would have sold the thames more. Or maybe here earlier in the evening. 6
