- that's a street. the cars are so tiny - Samir ..ıllılı..
- You are right Samir... I actually haven't seen the street. Thanks for telling this!
This makes the whole thing even more crazy! - the buildings are so tall, you should have a photo from the street pointing up, to see if you get a view of the sky.
this photo reminds me of this movie

Growing Crystals of Hong Kong
Hong Kong again… This city is crazy! Everytime I browse my Hong Kong images I am astonished. As I sharpened these houses with a special technique the outcome looks a lot like stalagmites. The interesting thing is that they grow upsidedown!
However. This photo was taken through a window. You can see it in the upper right Corner. I tried to clean as much artifacts as possible but there was no chance. As this shot is not a HDR it was really hard to deal with the tones and the sky. It took me quite a while to get colors in the hills. The smoke is unbelievable thick over there. Everything looks grey and pale when you see the first outcomes on the camera!
So far I am busy doing all the important University stuff. I wish you a great weekend as I have to leave my Computer to work on now!

Fascinating urban sprawl, it looks very futuristic. Great city panorama!
I like the processing in the last two shots in the series. By the way, I'd never seen before a double-decker tram :)
