Share

Almost everyone lives near some form of city – whether it’s a huge urban metropolis, or a smaller town. By nature, a city isn’t necessarily the most beautiful subject to photograph. And therein lies the challenge – taking a man made set of structures, and turning them into something artistic and beautiful.

Today we’re showcasing over a hundred examples of photos that got it right, showing off the beauty that can lie in cities spread around the world.

  1. Some very nice photos!

    I actually have a similar photo as Sorguls photo of Trondheim. It’s posted at: http://alexanno.net/2010/trondheim-classic/

  2. Lovely collection, I especially like the night shot by Joanne Leung. Thanks for the great showcase Vailancio!

    Some of those are truly stunning, but I have one almost identical to the one by jon.noj, but with a more yellow white balance http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3092730&id=858389473 there, and it was a less clear day.

    If you want to see mine (a little town in Reunion Island) follow this link : http://www.flickr.com/photos/georun/4220712777/

  13. Great collection !!

    Here’s my places portfolio : http://photos.jmleclercq.com/places

  14. Mark says:

    Some great photos, a pity the comments – like so many photo showcases – turn into a “look at me” self-promotion fest.

  15. Vailancio says:

    Hey GuyZ!

    You forgot to criticize :)
    All these images are from Flickr. Actually I had other sources in my mind. But the number was increasing and also I was running out of time. This collection itself took me over a week to complete. So I finalized with most sensational Flickr Photographs. There are many more if you consider other sources. Anyway let me know if I should continue with such inspirational posts.

    Here is one of mine…

  17. Zack Jones says:

    That is a great collection of shots. What I find very interesting is the majority of them were taken at night. Seems I need to head out with my camera after the sun goes down for a change.

  18. It’s easy to say that photos are nice, but these are really great. Some truly stunning work.

    Here are a couple of mine, thanks for asking!
