This building is quite well-known among London photographers for its unique design full of sharp angles and its resemblance to the Batman sign when photographed from the right vantage point.
The building is 7 More London Riverside and is the headquarters for PWC. It is part of the More London project in London and was designed by Foster + Partners. It stands in an area next to Tower Bridge on the South Bank. For my shot, I photographed straight up and cropped to focus on the Batman shape. It was a very dull day, but I also edited the photo for a darker look and converted it to mono.
I've taken this photo a few times before, but I was never satisfied with my shots because the sky was clear and it didn't look like it. But with a bit of moody cloudiness, it adds another element to the shot and I am happy with how it turned out.
