Excellent work, great eye. I imagine this is how the architect intended it to be seen. I like the B+W. Only suggestion I could give to improve this would be to block out the bridge etc. in the background if it was possible, it doesn't tie in with the rest of the image.

Don't they refer to this building as ... "Jelly Sliding Off A Plate"

and you also have the .... "Erotic Gerkin"

Including the stairs and the angle you took down the handrail adds to the push to the right. Looks more like a museum than a city officials building. Good shot of the hardscape

Thanks for your comments so far, yeah strange to think this would be a building for office officials, its probably for them to project they are moving with the times. KEIFER, the Gerkin is also an architectural beauty in London,around the same area this photo was taken, its shape has brought about different nicknames like u mentioned, :) Quite amusing. I am looking into the colored version. Thanks so far.:)

well done . . . Nice shot .

wow. that is amazing. great shot!

This is an absolutely brilliant photo... Really awesome composition and contrasting lines.
Thanks for posting it!

Excellent shot! I saw that building when I was in London and took a shot, but now i cant find it anywhere...o well

This is very cool! I like the composition alot. Good choice of black and white!

I've seen this same shot on dpreview.com. Not that you necessarily stole it, but it is odd to see near identical, if not entirely identical, pictures. EDIT: I guess this is just a popular building. The angles are different anyway.

Very cool!!!

the building is really cool, and the angle is great. Good job
