The Shard
Dominating the surrounding skyline, The Shard is one of the most recognizable buildings in the London. Modelled after a shard of glass so it's only natural that it is made of 11,000 glass panels. Its sharp, angular shape makes it stand out, giving you plenty of options for how to shoot it. You can capture it from street level looking up to emphasize its height, or frame it from bridges and riverside paths for wider skyline views. It works especially well at sunrise or sunset when the glass catches changing light, and at night when it is lit from within. The Shard is the tallest building in the UK and Western Europe, the fourth tallest building in all of Europe and the 96th tallest building in the world. (London, England, United Kingdom)
