The Shard Tower in London

Despite the fact I see the Shard regularly on the way to work, I still like coming to this thread for a detailed progress update. :cool:

Anyone who is interested in cranes might enjoy this documentary - The Solitary Life of Cranes:

I watched that docu. Shame it was so boring. It was more pretty views and music than actual facts or anything.
 
Ma mate is now working both at the Shard and at a small site in Canterbury. Says that being on a 4-section crane after being up there at the top of the world is like being leashed.

And he posted a picture on his facebook page of UFO over South London :D If I knew how, I'd link it or nick it so we can decipher it for him.
 
on a mac, ctrl+click, then copy image location, put it in img tags

edit: make sure you copy image location, not link location
 
Nope, he must have his permissions locked down (I checked your post, you're doing it right)

You could right click, save image as, then upload it to www.tinypic.com

Your mate sounds like perfect material for billybullshit.com :D
 
The story is that it came in really quick, and when he radio'd down to the ground and said "Hey! Look up!", by the time anyone looked it had already shot off.
 
Image removed in response to this ^^ post.

I was asking for it really wasn't I.

It's not my image, so I should not have used it.
 
By the way I have seen images he's taken that do appear to show the curvature of the earth.

That image I linked was from one of the two lower cranes at the sides of the Shard. The curvature of the earth photos are taken from the much higher crane that's on the very top.

The two miles up thing is blatantly showing off, or misunderstanding distances or something.
