It wasn't reflecting..it was that the way the stack is situated. From my house the black trim looked like it was a blacked out window on the building next to Canary Warf. There are red lights on it that made it worse because it could have been fire in that window. The smoke was for sure real and not a cloud so I started to worry just a bit too much for someone with a hangover.
When I got my binoculars out and focused them properly I could just about make out that factory chimey stack....about 10 seconds after I posted..lol
London does have some amazing skies at sunset..more purples and reds than you would expect.
