So whats the skyline of your city? Don't live in a city (like me) then post the skyline of the closest one to you, or your favorite.

I live near Albany.. I like the Albany skyline. It looks plain and I think you can only really appreciate Albany if you've actually lived there or grown up with it xD Otherwise you're like "Well this is IT?" But it's a special place.

A pretty night skyline

there's this beautiful proffesional photograph and I wish I could find it online of the night skyline, but this is the best I could find.
 
     
 
Here is a photo of Auckland, New Zealand. It was taken by myself at Mt Eden. I think it's a lovely shot and shows what a pretty city it is with the Waitemata Harbour behind it.

     
Here's one of Irvine, California:

I want to make a time machine to go back to the past.
What’s wrong with falling down? Because as long as I stand up again, it’ll be just fine.
I want to accept the me right now, and live on.
 
Omg kewl people ^^ I like seeing how places look
     



This is Sheffield. Of course, the towers sadly aren't there any more
since they were demolished. They're still the only thing other than
Meadowhall that defines the skyline for me, though.



Boo. I loved driving on the motorway next to them.

Cleveland, Ohio, USA (I live fairly close to here).

Except of course 99% of the city looks run down and it's snowing here 99% of the time (exaggerations, yes...). In reality the only good things in Cleveland are the Cleveland Clinic and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. xd

Lol its ok.. Albany looks really really ghetto and run down when driving through it. So again, you can only really appreciate it if you've known it for ages. It's beautiful and historical though
 
     

It's just a jump to the left.....

I live in the Houston (located in Texas, USA) metropolis. Here's a picture of the skyline downtown:

Whoa, fantastic cities, especially the ones with the mountains in the back! Those are some gorgeous pictures!

And this is what I see twice a day on my way to and from school, except from the other side since I'm just over the bridge in Jersey:

It's really beautiful to be able to see the sun rising on the skyline and every morning the sky behind it is a different shade of blue, orange, or pink. ♥

I went to the Reading Terminal there just this morning and got amazing breakfast and pretzels.

Well, the mountains are what my city is famous for. And the epic lulz surrounding the gangsters. However, gangsters aren't a big deal where I'm from, so it's lulz and not srs bzns.
