 Jing An Hilton hotel in Shanghai. Currently not in use, but it is still there, the helipad. Through connections, we got access to the roof. This is it. On top of 42nd floor.

Check the camera settings (Aperture priority), it is purely by mistake! I am just lucky it was overcast and did not get overexposed. 1/4000 shutter speed, don't tell me you see camera shake ...

It is the rooftop of a Hilton Hotel (Shanghai), and yes, it is a helipad of course. Just funny when it is a hotel starting with the letter H.

I just love the hint of a city that softly rests on the horizon. The selective desaturation works quite nicely here...a cool and moody shot.

H for Hospital is what I thought. Like the yellow, really like the skyline below/in the distance.

Outstanding shot ... love the perspective and tones. Distortion also adds to the image overall. *10*
