just kept the pitch and roll indicators centred for the shot - this resulted in a lot more foreground which I cropped out by going from 3x2 to 10x8.

I think you're right, though it's called London City Island strictly speaking. No doubt for marketing purposes by Ballymore. The red bridge is called City Island bridge and the English National Ballet gives its address as London City Island so I think the new name is established! Thanks for looking.
