Western Europe's tallest building, The Shard, is seen here reflected in the sheer glass panels of No.6 More London on Battle Bridge Lane. The discontinuities of the reflective surface result in the already spiky building appearing to have numerous subsidiary spikes, making it look even more like some fantastical tower from Lord of the Rings !
