The Gherkin, London. This is my little tribute to all the bankers and financial
'experts' who gamble with our money, then expect us to bail them out when they lose.
Enjoy your Christmas bonus fellas! Meanwhile, consider getting a proper job in future.

Fabulous treatment Steve.
Never heard about Gherkin though :), but your version is the one I prefer rather than the original :)

Steve, your comp is elegant and well executed. Not what comes to mind as a fitting tribute for the money speculators who have triggered this worldwide financial mess. V

Best shot I have seen of this building.. the Gherkin? good title and sentiment too..

lol, agree entirely!! Lovely shot of the Gherkin - your PP is always breathtaking and this is no exception. I love the way you've made the photo into a canvas, and made it look as though you've painted this beautiful building...it's truly wonderful to look at. V+
