Photographer’s Note
London Docklands seen from the Old Royal Observatory hill.
New Docklands including a famous Canary Wharf were built in eighties last century ( I mean XX century) as a new business and financial centre.
As a contrast to this modern district you can see on the foreground The Queen's Hause built in 17th century and behind it The Royal Naval College, which in 19ty century was converted into a college from the previous Naval Hospital initiated in 17th century.
I have added a "transportation" category because Thames river visible begind the Royal Naval Collage is also an important transportation route.
Well, it's good to take a boat trip from London to Greenwich

Good contrast between old and new buildings. I have been to Greenwich myself. That is where you can stand with one foot on each side of the dateline. I remember walking through a tunnel under the water. The river looks quite narrow in your picture. Nice and clear picture.

Yes, it is interesting to notice the changes that go on as time goes on. Time marches on. Very good composition and sharpness of capture. Well taken.

Very good point of view Marek, nice contrast and excellent depth, the view on the city with these old building in the front is quite nice, good work.

A well know landmark, the contrast of time and style is well represented here.

Hi Marek,
Nice image. Good POV. Nice to see the Naval College from this angle on such a crisp sunlit evening.
