Not easy to shoot and create an impression. Cityscapes is as tough as landscapes!

[Aryan]

Nice thread, this. :) Here are a few photographs from my end, which I had shot a couple of months back for professional purposes; more of an urban landscape and cityscape mixed! :)

@Zwaltek: Yes, those photographs are of Delhi and surrounding areas (Ghaziabad/ NCR).

Lovely night shot there! Amazing. :)

[KrishnenduKes]

Wow! This place is warming up already.

@Aryan: Where did you shoot the first two shots from? Are they at Ghaziabad?

[anvancy-(macro analyst)]

LA has one of the biggest and best cityscapes to shoot.wonderful shots there Sir!

And Aryan and Ken,I got to know how 'crowded' delhi really is when i saw it through my plane window while takeoff!

Thanks Aryan, I've lived in Delhi only a month and it was in 2001. So I would not be able to recognize any of it. I dig the two last shots with this sense of perspective given by that horizon line that escapes our sight, disappearing in the smog. great.

another one of downtown LA at night. BW this time

I think it qualifies! Would have liked to see a bigger version...

Thanks Kenda. I don't think I've a bigger version available online as most images have been downsized for web purposes.

[Bibudesh]

Sorry for being perfectionist, the shots are lacking benchmarks.

[dipdawiz]

this is not very high quality. Taken with help of my camera's panorama guidance and then stitched using Olympus master software
