A man photographs Silver Wind, a huge 514 feet long, 17,400 ton cruise liner as she leaves London passing the Shard before travelling under Tower Bridge this morning after a brief visit, towed backwards by two tugs. Silver Wind carries just 296 passengers and its owner, Silversea claim that the ship has amongst the highest space-to-guest ratios in the cruise ship industry, with the largest suites measuring 1,314 square feet. Tickets cost thousands of pounds, but all guest expenses, even champagne are included in the price. Environmentalists claim the pollution created by giant cruise ships outweigh their economic benefits. The Port of London Authority (PLA) are conducting a work programme during 2017 to monitor air quality and pollution caused by river traffic on the River Thames. Photo credit: Vickie Flores/LNP
