I didn't take these photos (I still use my trusty, film, K1000 and refuse to move to digital), but they are rather representative of what I see every day:
My office faces east, so I usually see something like this...
And depending on what happening in the office (meetings, etc.) I'll see this:
Windsor Castle eh? That's certainly interesting. Have they recovered from the fire yet???
I've never seen the second place you work at... what is it??? Looks cool.
Yep the fire restoration was completed by 1997 (5 years after the event), over 100 rooms were restored, and thankfully most of the priceless artwork had already been moved out (the fire started during a major renovation programme).
Second place I work in (the one that looks a bit like a cathedral) is the Natural History Museum in London. If youre talking about Westfield, its a giant upmarket mall (that I hated).
My place of employment is in an ugly structure in an ugly part of town. I work in a distribution center for a high end department store (Von Maur) and architecturally it's about what you would expect, low-slung and built of nondescript cement bricks. It was originally built as an outlet mall back in the 1980's. Inside is somewhat more fancy considering the work I do. To get to the warehouse section that I work in I have to walk down marble covered floors, past paintings, antiques and a huge stained glass window from the 1892 Chicago Worlds Fair that was in our downtown store for many years before it closed. The warehouse section of the building is way less foo-foo except for the merchandise which is a bit pricey for me (but I do get a 20% discount)
