Shard Conjunction

The Shard is currently the tallest building in London, dominating the skyline and visible from many points along the Thames. It's impressing height and good visibility from various city viewpoints mean that with some planning, good timing, and a bit of luck, you can capture the moon or the sun juxtaposed with this building from a great distance, using a superzoom lens.

You can use photo planning tools such as Photo Ephemeris to visualise exactly where to be for the perfect alignment.
