A bird's eye view

We had a day out being tourists in London. I wanted to see the poppies at the Tower of London again before they go. Apparently so did thousands of other people - it was heaving. But still worth seeing as it's an impressive sight. Having seen it at ground level we headed up to the 72nd floor of The Shard, from where you get a different perspective altogether (with the shadow of The Shard falling across the tower).
The views over London are amazing from high up, especially on such a lovely sunny day.
