Cityscape nominee

All of the structures in the cityscape are meaningful because architect or civil engineers have logically designed or planed. This series is focused on hybrid distance view consisting of close and long distance view, in which for long distance view I tried to capture a main photogenic object and for close distance view challenged to capture a symbolic object to be mixed with the main photogenic object as if we’re walking through the symbolic object as PORTALS to the main objects.
