OMG IT'S.....THE SHARD!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shard_London_Bridge
This is a mega sci-fi skyscraper that's still being built. I want to get a night shot cos when it's dark and lit up it really does look like it's headed for outer space.
btw: that yellow crane is in the foreground, it's not some super massive crane.
