This is yet another photo that gives a perspective of the height that the London Eye reaches. The London Eye reaches a height of 145 metres; what that means is that when you are on the Eye, you will go higher than almost all the structures in the vicinity. Here a capsule is seen way high over the London Aquarium.
From this angle, it seems like the capsule is straining to reach the sky. I like such kind of photos, you can think about lofty ambitions and goals when looking at such photos. From this angle, it almost seems like the people in the other capsule are looking to reach the sky.
It would be a travesty to call the London Eye as a big Ferris wheel. But essentially, that is what it is. However, traveling in it is very enjoyable. In this picture, I am almost at the top, and you can get an idea of the height by looking at the photo of the capsule against the background of London behind the capsule.
This is a photograph of the sun being visible from within one of the capsules of London Eye. This photograph was taken in the afternoon, and was when I was almost at the top. The view from that location is great and very clear, but what impressed me a lot was the way in which the next capsule had the sun shining right through the glass.
