Aerial Photography : Amazing Cities From The Sky

Aerial Photography : City From The Sky - Aerial photography is the taking of photographs of the ground from an elevated position. The term usually refers to images in which the camera is not supported by a ground-based structure. Cameras may be hand held or mounted, and photographs may be taken by a photographer, triggered remotely or triggered automatically.

Not a HDR process. Handheld. Vertorama using 2 shots. Boost colors on selective areas with "Overlay" on layers. Finish off with slight contrast and sharpening. Added some clouds over it from my archives to spice it up a little.
