View of a bridge with the sun behind it. Two figures are silhoutted on the bridge. The sunlight reflects strongly off the river below.

An ornate boat is lit up along its hull and oars, it flies many flags above it. It's approaching Westmnster bridge, which is full of people visible in the streetlights.

Part of the Thames barrier (it is open) with Canary Wharf in the background, and a bright sky behind.

A corridor lined with brick and with orangey red lighting has a pillar with an old metal girder style eleent in its centre.

And, of course, the #Thames. Glide gently thus, forever glide O Thames. Or at least stay gentle until I've reached the Source and the #IsleOfGrain. The accessibility of the #ThamesPath in most places is such a joy, and new parts opening too. (29/35)
