I perhaps don't pay as much attention to the London skyline as I should. Even though I knew the 72 story, 310 metre tall Shard was being built, it wasn't until this morning that I actually looked up while on the train into Waterloo. I should have looked up earlier because standing clear of London's other skyscrapers the Shard is a pretty impressive building. While on the 16:09 Farringdon to Wimbledon train this evening it kept appearing and disappearing between buildings as we headed south. Despite a long liquid lunch I managed to grab my camera, point it through the train window and grab a couple of shots, the best of which was this.

While the top of the Shard appears to be somewhat unfinished the final steel structure and all glass panes are already in place, the building has been topped out. I may have to plan a trip to London bridge to get a better shot than one grabbed from a passing train.
