Again another spiral staircase is popular with photographers and it is located inside a department store off Tottenham Court Road called Heal’s.

The spiral staircase boasts very bold and striking colours with the latest addition during a recent refurbishment of a massive chandelier located within the middle of the staircase which I think is a “Marmite” subject among photographers, some like it and others don’t and prefer it the way it was. I am fortunate enough to have both pictures pre and post-refurbishment so I will let you make your mind up on this as I will include them below however I am undecided. I have visited here many times and sometimes I like the chandelier and its striking orb-like lights and other times I visit and wish for a bit more refinement and take away the chandelier, I just can’t make my mind up!

Was there last week. No issues to take photos. From bottom this staircase also looks gorgeous :)

I had with me 24-70 and 14mm lenses. 24 was ok, but 14 worked better. If you have 16-35 it should be perfect.

I've been there last Saturday and it was very difficult to capture everything - it's very beautiful there. But 17mm at full-frame was very good :-)
