When you think of a city, the word beautiful usually isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. Good urban photography can turn a gross city into a breathtaking image, and here are 70 examples of images that do just that. All these images are extremely colorful and very dramatic. You will notice many trends throughout the examples, such as use of HDR and images using reflections. Also, you will see that many of these images are taking at night or dawn, because the light from the buildings are brought out.
The following are 70 stunning cityscape and urban photographs that capture the beauty of the city. If you enjoy this post, give it a Digg and Stumble, or leave a quick comment.

It’s a shame there’s so much HDR in there. It really spoils the lineup of photos. Why anyone wants to make their pictures technicolor yawns is beyond me.

Great collection of cityscapes, thanks for posting it!

It’s more like 30-40 stunning pics after you get rid of the horrid HDR shots. Generally, the compositions are a good teaching aide and the post processing techniques of the non Hideous Digital Regurgitation pics are very interesting.

Those are some gussied up images alright. LIke so many things, you have to appreciate the work and skill that went into making them, if not their overall aesthetic.

beautiful photos. If cities all looked like this, i don’t think we would call them “gross” anymore. I love the concept of making gross look beautiful. Thanks.

Photography is the art of “capturing light” not editing it. Most of these shots are spectacular composition, I would love to see what actually came out of the camera. It’s a shame that with digital photography, we feel we have to enhance so much.
