Was fortunate enough to be working on the 50th floor or 1 Canada Square yesterday - and clever enough to remember to take the camera :-)

A couple of shots here

All opinions welcome

edit: just taken a look at them myself, and they've both compressed really badly - will try and sort that out

Hi Ed,

I like the sunset especially. Lovely colours. It could almost be a painting.

What's that rocket-shaped thing they're building in the other shot? (Haven't been into town for a while). Interesting how diddy the BT Tower looks - I can remember going up that when a little kid (showing my age) before the bombing.

Oops, forgot to say ... Great shots, especially 'West from...' : )

Seems an apt moniker. But what is it?

New Norman Foster building - not sure who it's for, but there's an amazing view to be had of it from the Mile End Road - if I hadn't been up Canary Wharf I'd have been down there shooting it against the sunset.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Ed
