Description Taken at Sky Tower in New Zealand. Sky Tower is the tallest tower in the Southern Hemisphere, so understandably, it has a good view. The city that it is looking over is Auckland.

I think this photo turned out okay. I wish that the shadows from the buildings weren't so big or dark. Also, whenever I look at this photo the horse on the giant ad jumps out at me, whereas the giant Santa Claus at the top of the picture doesn't. I'm glad I took this photo in a more isometric style rather than making it so that the streets were perpendicular to the bottom of the photo.

Tad bit blurry when you full-view it. But great nonetheless. Try framing it?

Like the angle and height from which you shot this.

Heaps of my photos are crisp when I get the prints back, but become blurry when putting them on my computer. I think it's my scanner.

I don't really feel the need to frame it here, seeing as it's framed in my bedroom. I might do it on a rainy day.

Thank you.

Yeah that's what happens with some of my photos if I scan it. Try making it crisper on a program like, Adobe Photoshop.

It would've been nice if you framed it but yeah... not necessary anymore. Maybe next time .

Thanks. That's the beauty of my mum's point-and-shoot: auto focus.

As you said in the description, the horse really jumps out at you, as do the shadows, if I were to 'fix' or change anything with this photo, I'd be stuck on what to do. Great shot.

Wow. The horse looks almost as though it was Photoshopped in - it is just such a good contrast of natural beauty with the busy city surrounding it...
It really has an emotional effect. The shaddow add a certain somethingto it too - I wouldn't change them.

Amazing angle. It makes my heart drop... any picture that has an affect on someone, physically, or mentally, should be considered grand... I like it a lot.
