Wobbly Bridge, London.Londoners nicknamed the bridge the Wobbly Bridge after crowds of pedestrians felt an unexpected swaying motion on the first two days after the bridge opened. The bridge was closed and modified, and further modifications eliminated the "wobble" entirely.

This brings fond memories to my mind <3
This spring I went on a trip to London with my brother and we walked across this bridge. I'll hold that dearly in my heart forever.
I love seeing pictures of the places we've been. I like being able to point and say, "Hey, we've been there!!"
Beautiful picture, the angle it's taken from is nice and it's a perfect shot. :3

Being a Londoner myself, I can't disagree. Albert Bridge has to be my favourite. At night it's lit up like a Christmas tree by lots of little bulbs.

You really captured the lighting well. It looks very cool being able to capture the path of the lights throughout the city and on the bridge. Nice job.
How long was the exposure?

Shutter, aperture, sensitivity?

I`m sorry I don`t,I`m still very much learning with my DSLR

Oh OK. Well if you look at the original image, you can view its properties and it will show what's called the EXIF data. In the EXIF data will be all sorts of useful info like camera model, focal distance, exposure, and time it was taken. Newer cameras and those which have been hacked even have the GPS aided geographic coordinates for Geo-Mapping the pictures.
If you get a chance to check out the EXIF data on the original of this shot, please let me know. I absolutely love it!
