A brief stop in the South, touring along the Thames, allowed me to snap this beautiful image of central London.

Ironbridge - Shropshire, England
Hello everyone!
Today we went for a lovely Sunday afternoon stroll along the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Iron Bridge Gorge. Making the most of this opportunity, I got to test my new camera's capabilities in less than perfect weather.
Located in Shropshire, just South of Telford, the Iron Bridge Gorge is the site of the World's first cast iron bridge. Built in 1781, it was a popular crossing over the River Severn, 2 miles from the next closest bridge. This area of Shropshire was famous for the use of iron ore and coke from local mines, spurring industrialisation. Enjoy photos of the gorge!
