 Eye of the Storm at the London Eye Ferris Wheel

Location: The London Eye
Destination: London
Country: United Kingdom
Year Taken: 2008

Photographer: Francesca Smith

At 443 feet (135 meters) tall, the London Eye is the world’s third tallest Ferris wheel. 

Located along south bank of the River Thames, it opened on New Year’s Eve in 1999 and is enjoyed by roughly 3 million visitors annually.

This photo was taken on an early October evening, when it clouds  of a coming storm created what looked like the “eye” of a storm.  The setting sun cast a glow on the scattered clouds and illuminated the wheel.
