BUILDINGS

Looking around London is always interesting, but this time I was struck by the amount that is being built at the moment.  Especially skywards.  And also the astonishing difference between old and new.
 London ist immer interessant, aber diesmal fiel mir auf wie viel dort im Moment gebaut wird.  Vor allem hoch hinaus.  Und erstaunlich ist der Unterschied zwischen alt und neu.
St Paul's Cathedral

 Westminster with Big Ben and the London Eye
 The Shard - the latest skyscraper.  Die Scherbe - der neueste Wolkenkratzer.
Climbing up the back of the Festival Hall.  Klettern an der Hinterseite der Festival Hall.

More concrete and glass.  Noch mehr Beton und Glas.

  2. Wonderful photos, thanks so much for sharing them with us. It's an interesting change from the old style of buildings to the streamlined buildings lined with glass. What do you think? Do you like the new style better?

  3. your selection of pictures certainly highlight the architectural monstrosities that are being churned out in London and are,well to my mind at least, ruining the skyline.Poor St.Paul's crowded out with junk!
