Cityscape Thread

[daniel]

I really like taking photos of cities, especially at night, even though I haven't done that many and still kind of suck. I'd like to see what everyone else has done. I know Lyle has a few nice ones, and 87e30 (i dont know your name i dont think).

Anyway, I took a couple tonight, and decided that rather than make a new thread just for those, we could all share a thread with the same theme. They don't have to be lengthy exposures at night. just cities, skylines, etc. If possible or applicable, include photo details.

Here is my hometown, Tulsa, OK.

Great idea, anyone can appreciate good photography. No thread for this already i guess?

daniel, you should try to get some shots of downtown from the 21st St bridge. You also need to get some shots of all the great Art Deco stuff downtown.

Tulsa is 2nd only to Miami in the number of Art Deco buildings, we also have a Frank Lloyd Wright house in midtown.

yeah, i thought i would have a good angle from 6th/peoria, but i didn't really. before i leave i'll check out a couple more spots, and maybe go downtown to take some shots from the middle of the street or something. i wish i had a super-wide angle lens for this, too.

Reservoir Hill may be another good spot to get a shot from downtown, although driving through the neighborhoods to get there at night, I'm not sure I'd go unarmed.

Chandler Park could be good as well and there are a few spots on Oak Ridge Dr and one of the new editions off Old North Rd in Sand Springs that could give you some cool long distance shots.

I have WAY too many of these. Good idea!

[daniel]

[87e30]

Well maybe I don't have too many as I think that's really all that I have... it's all on my flickr.

Thanks man!

[lylefk]

Lylefk your shots are awesome but somehow they lose a lot of quality the way that you post them up...
