The speed of development in central London at times seems bewildering. Cranes pock mark the sky and at every turn there is evidence of change.
Today’s image is of a very small section of a vast new building nearing completion on Oxford Street. Its façade really appeals to me. With added reflections is has an abstract feel to it.

About LensScaper
I'm a UK-based photographer whose landscapes are inspired by my love of outdoor pursuits: skiing, walking and climbing. I seldom leave home without a camera. As a result, increasingly I find images in unexpected places and from different genres. I work on the premise that Photography is Art and that creativity is boosted by the cultivation of 'The Seeing Eye'. I'm not averse to manipulating images to produce derivatives that may sometimes be far removed from the original.
Excellent Andy. I really like that!
Thanks Paul
I like that too, see I would walk right by that, well spotted.
Many thanks Mark. That’s what is fascinating about photography: we all see different things
Great shot, Andy. The modern architecture makes for some beautiful graphic designs.
sounds exactly like what’s going on in Toronto. You can’t turn a corner without seeing another condo going up. I love the graphic elements of this image.
Thanks Edith. I suspect cranes are going to be part of the skyline in most cities indefinitely
I really like the colours in this photo – the greens especially. And you must have been in the perfect spot to line up the brick reflections so nicely with the edges of the windows. The white web pattern is interesting and will probably stand the test of time very well, but the yellow and black slashes in the lower left are likely to look dated in just a few years.
Thanks very much Ehpem. The building is not yet occupied – I think the yellow and black splashes will be a feature of the frontage of the store in the floor at ground level. I felt it just added something that disrupted the otherwise almost perfect symmetry.
Fabulous reflections. Love the color palette here!
Thanks very much Marcie
Super patterns and reflection Andy.
