This image depicts a view of the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben in London, United Kingdom, across the River Thames. The sky is filled with overcast, grey clouds with hints of pink near the horizon. In the foreground, the dark, rippling water of the Thames occupies the lower half of the frame. A large, textured stone structure is visible on the left, with green foliage overhanging from above. A modern white pier with a metal framework extends into the river from the left side of the image. Several boats are moored on the right side of the river. In the middle ground, the iconic Palace of Westminster stands with its numerous towers and spires. To the right of the palace, the Elizabeth Tower, commonly known as Big Ben, is clearly visible with its clock face illuminated. A flock of birds is visible in the sky. The scene appears to be captured during twilight, as indicated by the lighting and sky conditions.
