Symmetry in London

The picture of the 96th Bombardment Group Memorial got me thinking of pictures that have symmetry and this is something I look for a lot in an image when I'm out and about, especially in a town or city.  During our recent visit to London I took three images that have a striking symmetry to the composition.


The first is the underside of the Millennium Bridge across the River Thames.  This was taken from the walkway under the bridge and with the bracing wires running along each side of the bridge and the underside going into a point at the first upright in the water, this image makes a striking image.


The second shot is of the roof in the Tate Britain Museum, this looking straight up into the domed roof at the entrance to the museum.




The third shot was also taken at the Tate Britain but this time is taken in one of the viewing galleries.  I had to wait for some people to move off the right hand seat but the symmetry in this shot is very pleasing


All of these images were taken on a ultra wide angle lens, a 17-35mm f2.8 Nikon lens on a Nikon D700 with the lens used at the 17mm end of the zoom range.
