Oh yes it is

London Bridge is a bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, United States, that is based on the 1831 London Bridge that spanned the River Thames in London, England until it was dismantled in 1967.

nice shots but not digging the heavy orange hue of all the shots.

Umm they do look a little similar...i'll have a little play around!

The London Bridge is quite boring. I'd much rather see the Tower Bridge.

I think you may have some white balance issues. Try cooling the temperature and see if they look better.

I know. I was there when I was 16 years old. London, Paris, Ireland, Scotland, Norway...good times. Would give anything to go back... Had no interest beyond basic photography back then...alas...

good start but you need to work on your composition. the pictures of the buildings are from angles that you would see if you just walked up to it and looked up. not interesting at all.

The bridges are poorly composed. Having the buildings directly behind the bridge makes it too distracting and cluttered. You need to have sky or water behind the bridges...

keep working on it, im sure you will figure it out.

Thanks for the pointers on the composition.....certainly something i can work on!! i need to walk around my subject first before taking the first decent angle i see......
