Sunset From the Shard (Explored 03/30/25 at 303)

The Shard
London, England
03-20-25

I booked sunset views on two different evenings in London from the top of the 72 story, 1,019' tall Shard, London's tallest skyscraper, and from the London Eye, the big ferris wheel.

Here's the view of the sunset on March 20th from the Shard. It was interesting and somewhat intricate to be able to get to the two destinations on time, since I was using public transportation, each was booked at 5:30pm so I would be sure to capture the sunset, and by that time on each day, I'd already walked multiple miles in my quest for photo ops.

Still, I was able to be at the place at the time I booked, and got my sunset shots from high above the skyline.

EDIT: Explored 03/30/25 at 303. As always, many thanks to everyone who views, faves, follows, and comments on my images! 🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖🎁🎁🎁🎁🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😁😁😁😁
