Description

This photograph was taken on the helipad of The Peninsula Bangkok. I was supposed to be doing a due dilligence inspection and taking photos for a report, but this sight was just too good to pass up. I kinda like how the pollution is obscuring the lines of the buildings. Architecture has always had an impact on me, so I just want to share this one with you folks. Thank you for taking the time to view.

Cool photo Moe, I guess this is where you get your inspiration for your excellent Dystopia City Blocks.

I was just going to say that Fillingim. There's at least 4 or 5 in that photo. Who'da thunk stairs would have such a huge impact?

LOL!!!

There's a building code in Bangkok that limits the shape of the buildings by calculating how much daylight is allowed at street level between the hours of 10AM and 3PM. Or something like that. I guess that kinda explains the "stair-step" effect.

This image reminds me a bit of my home town (NYC). It's amazing what phtographic results one can get from pollution on images. Thanks for sharing this very cool pic Moe!

Very cool pic Moe! It looks like an ad for "Dystopia-the 20th Century".
