Then stop taking drugs. They're not good for your eyesight

But they open my minds eye maaaaaaaaan.

Here's a daytime photo. It's very hazy out there. I know cyber will be so impressed, he's going to go and take more just to try to outdo my photos

I am (that is quite a cool skyline shot) and of course I am

though I have the advantage* of being a bit closer, of course... Location, location, location!


* e2a: but not for taking cool skyline shots

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Nice. Are they today?

Of course, if I knew how to actually work a camera, I might get a decent shot occasionally, but...

I can see Canary Wharf to Battersea from this flat

 

[cybertect]

Nice. Are they today?

Yep. Taken about an hour ago now.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

You seem to have a very blue sky in the first shot

Telescope owners from Canary Wharf to Battersea spy on Minnie

That's a great pic. Like a mirage.


Happy accident, obvs.

It was/is.

Looking west. The others are more southward and the sky's a bit more bleached of colour by the sun.

They're not night-time shots

 

[teuchter]

sorry, hadn't realised I'd posted them on the "night time shots of the Shard" thread.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

You promised you'd get a picture of more of the building tonight

 

[teuchter]

I did, did I.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I did, did I.

yep. See post 888

 

[quimcunx]

888, the number of the teletext.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

888, the number of the teletext.

Just think, no Ceefax soon

 

[teuchter]

yep. See post 888

Goodness me, I really am getting absent-minded. It had entirely slipped my mind. I wil see what I can do tonight.

Good

I would take another daytime picture today except it's so hazy over London, you can barely see the Shard. Sodding pollution getting in the way of my views

 

[teuchter]

Good

Here you go

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

That's beautiful teuchter

 

[teuchter]

I knew you'd like it

 

[cybertect]

Sorry, Minnie, they're not night time shots. I took them this morning.

Pollution haze does have its benefits

 

[Crispy]

Oh, those step-backs in the gap behind the southern shard (the short one). do not like

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Pollution haze does have its benefits

Yes, it seems to be giving that particular area of London blue skies

 

[bromley]

Must be close to his maximum height?

 

[teuchter]

Who?

I think it's going to look perpetually unfinished at the top.
