WOW these are some awesome cityscapes. Great comps and sharpness throughout, but man #1 is stunning!

Very nice!

The next time I am in Taiwan visiting relatives, I'll have to go up on Elephant Mountain to get a photo from that view.

All great, but 3, 4 and 7 really stand out.

Love the first shot, so clean, the light on the left side of the building is sweet.

I'm so happy to see that last one, I was over there at the same time to work on that show and I really haven't seen many pictures of the building fireworks or the ones on the riverside (where I was located most of the time)
