The Leandenhall Building, also know as the Cheesegrater in The City of London is home to the fastest passenger lifts in Europe. Unlike most lifts hidden away in concrete shafts, the lifts at the Leadenhall Building are out on show, fully expressed in a filigree steel and glass structure for all to see. This photograph endeavoured to capture the colourful vibrancy of the lift shaft structure, with one of the fast moving bright orange lift counterweights in the foreground. On closer inspection of the image, the fully glazed façade allows for secondary glimpses beyond, with the silhouette of tiny people and vehicles on the street below.
