London, England - Just Another Day Window Cleaning

LONDON, ENGLAND - A photo illustration of window cleaning tools ready for use on the 50th floor of the One Canada Square skyscraper on February 8, 2011 in London, England. Currently the tallest building in Britain, it lies at the heart of Canary Wharf, the business and shopping district on the River Thames. To clean all the windows of the building takes a month, with the cleaners suspended up to 190m from the ground. As always, click the pictures to enlarge. Previous blogs here & here.
