Well, i'm afraid i can never come close to some of the great shots in here, certainly not Akira's.

I'm trying anyway, from Eindhoven, so i have to work harder on it, for the lack of really tall buildings.

Hans, it is not about how tall the buildings are, but how much you can tilt your head :)
Lovely images both, the second one is special.
Akira, i love the helicoid twisted pyramid one!

No worries, Hans!  Although I didn't start this thread as part of [Theme], any participants and different interpretations of "Rubberneck" will be welcomed.  I like the second one seen through the iron construction with the lights.

Jakov, thank you for the comment.  The pyramid one is a fairly old building, but I didn't realize it is lit this way at night!


Akira, thanks for the excellent shots of Tokyo architecture.

Anthony, I'm glad you enjoy the thread!
