Taken from a distance with a 500mm lens the city of Surfers Paradise (Australia) appears a little congested with buildings and seems to rise out of the sea.

View of Tokyo from Tokyo Skytree lower viewing deck In the far, far distance by the horizon, a little to the left of the middle, you can see Tokyo Tower. This shot also includes the Sumida river, the Edo Tokyo museum, and the Ryogoku Kokugikan National Sumo Stadium (among other things of course, but they have rather distinct looks which make them stand out).
The Inside Embankment of the Itaipu Hydroelectric Power Station.
looking down to the basemant of the Dam, guess it is 70m! Best to see in enlarged Mode!!
La cúpula del edificio está cubierta con 30,000 hojas de oro de 24 kilalates, haciendo una vista preciosa y a la vez carisima.... Gracias a todos por vuestras visitas y comentarios ;)
Handheld street photography with a 10mm lens is a real challenge. So it is only an attempt in the genre street with my favorite Voigtlaender hyper wide lens.
Therefore every comment and criticism is very much appreciated.
A special thanks to
for the inspiration for the title.
Shot from SkyPark, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. Shows "Shoppes", Harbour, Central Business District, Fullerton Bay Hotel, One Fullerton, Fullerton Hotel and Louis Vuitton Flag Ship Store.

As a sleeper in metropolis
You are insignificance
Dreams become entangled in the system
Environment moves over the sleeper:
Conditioned air
Conditions sedated breathing
The sensation of viscose sheets on naked flesh
Soft and warm
But lonesome in the blackened ocean of night
Confined in the helpless safety of desires and dreams
We fight our insignificance
The harder we fight
The higher the wall
Outside the cancerous city spreads
Like an illness
It's symptoms
In cars that cruise to inevitable destinations
Tailed by the silent spotlights
Of society created paranoia
No alternative could grow
Where love cannot take root
No shadows will replace
The warmth of your contact
Love is dead in metropolis
All contact through glove or partition
What a waste
The City -
A wasting disease
