Great images. It's quite hard to imagine the Thames without this iconic structure.
The sepia tones really ramp up the feeling of nostalgia on old photos.
I wonder whether people looking at shots from 2012 in 125 years will feel the same?

I have a softback book "The Innovative Engineer - 125 years of the Engineer", Puslished by Morgan Grampian, which might be available via your local libraries.
Pages 58-63 is devoted to the construction of Tower Bridge and shows a contruction photograph attributed to Mr W.E.Wright.
{Possibly - William Edward Wright F.R.P.S. Woodgrange Road, Forest Gate.}

Amazing photographic record of the construction of this famous bridge.
“Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.”
Edmund Burke (1729 – 1797)
