Is this a real city? If so, which one?

[-] mondoman712@lemmy.ml 23 points 8 months ago

It's Shanghai, Yan'an Road West. You can see the front of Jing'an Temple and the adjacent mall in the distance. There's definitely some editing weirdness going on on the road in the foreground though.

Don't think its real. Look at the three identical blue windows on the front left house.

[-] Kuinox@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

That's called a reflection.

[-] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 8 months ago

A reflection. At this time of the year. In this part of the country. Localised entirely 3 floors down?

[-] Kuinox@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

It's a reflection of the far away road.

Looks straight out of Toronto QEW downtown.

[-] ECB@feddit.org 3 points 8 months ago

It definitely looks a lot like Toronto, but it's been a while since I was there

[-] NarrativeBear@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Looked like Toronto to me too. Very similar design to the Gardiner Expressway going through downtown Toronto between the waterfront and CN Tower.

You know you messed up when a photographer can take what seems to be a long(ish) exposure shot of a highway.

[-] Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 5 points 8 months ago

I wonder how many cyclists it took to cause all that traffic. /s

[-] vrj@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Honestly I find myself trying to figure out how the photographer achieved this effect, rather than focusing on how much space cars take up in the shot. (tint the non-red highlights to blue, then oversaturate the highlights maybe? But how did they get the colors on the street lights?)

But needless to say that city would be better without a freeway cutting through it

Can I get a picture of INXS now?

I used my sister’s copy of “Kick” to get the monster “Gooaall!” in Monster Rancher.

It's beautiful if you don't look at it for more then 1 second

It’s really pretty but I’m glad I’m not down there in all that traffic!
