Lloyds Building, London

Absolutely fascinating building at 1 Lime Street which sadly is often overlooked in favour of The Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe) (bah!) nearby. Designed by Richard Rogers and completed in 1986, like the Pompidou Centre in Paris a lot of the items usually found inside buildings (stairs, elevators) are actually on the outside.

Pentax istDS with Sigma 10-20mm lens.

Lloyds Building, London belongs to the following groups:

    I walked past this building just last week and I have seen many photos of it taken…I have to say, this is the best I have seen so far! Great work – looks so good in BW. Its like something out of a sci-fi movie. I’d love to know what lens you used

    So shiny! It reminds me of a condo complex here in Madison that’s “lovingly” referred to as the 6-pack (as in beer cans) because it is all metal and reflective silver glass..
