This must be the most shot staircase in London. First time I've see it myself and it's a stunning location :-)
A recent trip to the Natural History Museum in London for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition gave me the chance to get a shot of this amazing space.
This is actually a 7 shot (43mp) panorama, why? Because I only had a 50mm lens on me.

An image of one of the entrances to the Canary Wharf LT Underground Station, Docklands, London., it was opened in 1999 as part of the Jubilee Line extension.
The tube station was intended from the start to be the showpiece of the Jubilee Line Extension, and the contract for its design was awarded in 1990 to the architect Sir Norman Foster and partners. It was constructed in a drained arm of the former dock, using a simple "cut and cover" method to excavate an enormous pit 24 metres (78 ft) deep and 265 metres (869 ft) long. The size of the interior has led to it being compared to a cathedral in the modern age, it's truly spectacular.
In a 2013 poll conducted by YouGov, it was voted as the "Most Loved" tube station in London, is pretty vast, and looks in part like a set from Blade Runner.
If you like LT going underground images, I have a collection of them on my website:

Westminster Abbey Chapter House
London, England
03-19-25
This is an unedited wide angle view of the side of Westminster Abbey across from the Parliament building, showing the Chapter House in the center, and some of the Lady Chapel on the right.
Although it's springtime, and even the weather in London was nice if a bit cool, I was really drawn to the fact that none of the trees had leaves. They're mostly deciduous, and I looked on Google maps street view just now for this view. Normally you can't see much of the Abbey because these trees are full of green leaves. (I live in California where even deciduous trees have leaves on them most of the year long.)
So for photographic purposes, this was perfect. A little ominous perhaps, but these gigantic gothic cathedrals and abbeys are pretty ominous themselves.
6/31 October Photo a Day Challenge) Florin Court is a short walk from my office and is a very well known example of the Art Deco period. From some angles the building looks very ordinary and just blends in but as you get closer it has some amazing curved lines, and the way to view it (I think) is to look up!

The relatively new King's Cross Tunnel Light Wall, which is 90m long.
I first photographed this in 2015. The LED panels on the left stayed resolutely white on that occasion.
This time I was treated to the full rainbow experience. The LED panels are constantly changing colour and turning on/off.

At the eastern end, you can climb the Stamp Stair (so called for the practice of stamping newspapers, which once occurred in this part of the building). While clearly lacking the grace of its neighbour, The Nelson Staircase, the precarious-looking construction will remind you of Hogwarts. Note also how the intricate iron bannister changes to a much more workaday bar pattern as you descend to the servants’ level.

This Grade II listed Victorian Conservatory was originally built at the Horniman family house at Coombe Cliffe, Croydon, in 1894. By 1982, it had fallen into disrepair. The structure was dismantled and moved to its current site where it was beautifully restored with the help of English Heritage. It re-opened in 1989 and is used for performances, workshops, and as a function room. (www.horniman.ac.uk)
