It's actually called Tower Bridge. I think it is a very nice shot.

On the composition side - the top of the towers need some 'headroom'

Exposure looks good - not sure what level of noise there is in the sky. This can be an issue with long exposures - some cameras have a setting to compensate for high noise during long exposures. You can also deal with noise during the PP process.

Thanks for the suggestion AgBeard, I will try give few space on the top. Lemme see if I can adjust the noise on post processing, what it will look like.

+1,

you need only some mm above and the photo will be much better (although it is good even without any changes)

and may be a little smaller copyright text
