Almost half an hour and several hundred sweat inducing feet later, we reached the summit, a panoramic, unspoilt view of the city our reward. The wind howled, the crane upon which we stood creaked and swayed, London stretching as far as the eye could see. We were high, extremely high. Actually, we were too high. While the initial view was breathtaking, and believe me it was, once the adrenaline and satisfaction of what had been accomplished subsided, we slowly discovered that this view was for the most part, a photographic nightmare. Now I know, looking at the amount of pictures myself and many others have posted, you might consider what I’m saying as slightly ridiculous. Its difficult to explain, I tried to put my view into word, but nothing I wrote was able to convey it. Its something you will have to experience for yourself in a few months time when the first tours arrive on the observation deck.
