This was shot at 0615 hours; which is 4 minutes after the last image I posted (see www.flickr.com/photos/kayodeok/263717217/).
I thought I was facing east but I later realised that I didn't allow for the curvature of the River; I think east is just out of the frame on my right . . . the sky pinking up in that direction was a clue.
This will probably be the last of the dawn pictures taken on 28 September which will be seen here on Flickr (there are one or two more that I like but the light was really downhill from here on).

The City of London is a small area in Greater London, England.
In the medieval period the City was the full extent of London, but the term London now refers to a much larger conurbation containing both 'cities'. The City of London is still part of London's city centre, but apart from financial services, most of London's metropolitan functions are centred on the West End. The City of London has a resident population of under 10,000 but a daily working population of 311,000.
The size of the City was originally constrained by a defensive perimeter wall, known as 'London Wall
