San Francisco

The image tonality nicely depicts the bleakness of the modern cities.

A nice arrangement, Armand.
Yes I have been back to this one a few times. I was going to say it was arranged, but you already said that. It is nice a find and I like how you positioned the oval-like arrangement in the picture space. Love the muted almost pastel tones against grey-white sand. It accentuates the soft colours. Well done.

Thank you! It was my third time in San Francisco but I didn't get this view before, only street level. At street level I think most large cities share a common ground, even Miami, with slightly different flavors.

Thank you! Whatever arrangement was made it happened some time before as more than half of it was partially buried in the sand. Still pretty though regardless of the origins.

Looks like Amsterdam street humor.
Delightful.

It was in Maastricht, Eric.  A wonderful city, just an hour from home in Bonn.

Part of the VLA in NE ARizona. A very interesting and impressive thing to see along US 60.

Nice!

Are there legal restrictions to the photography of these structures? I'd love to be there during bad weather, in the relative comfort of a car, and armed with a really long lens. An entire series of film noir stills opens up...

Great subject to find; Photoshop was invented for it!

Street at the local tourist magnet. No, seriously, it's called Dutch Venice, because the streets are all canals.

Thanks, Armand and Rob. Rob, we often go up near there during monsoon season; I'll have to visit during a thunderstorm! 'Course, I could always fake it  ;)

From the tulip field.

Well, you know, we had to go see the local tulip fields. Obviously midday harsh sunlit tulipfields. God knows why all the tourists take pictures. It's a testimony to current day technology that the ubiquitous mobile thingies manage to come away with reasonable selfies. It's also interesting to note that those mobile thingies and the elderly have become best friends. Anyways, boring, so the contradictive photographer in me starts to look in the opposite direction as that is usually where you find the interesting pictures of people and audience watching the events that are apparently worth the visit and obscure the carrying and pointing of a camera since everyone carries and points a camera, except in this case everyone is standing deadsmack in the middle of the tulipfields that quickly lost my interest. Another downside of selfies by the way, people always facing the wrong way nowadays.

So that's how even a boring contraption in harsh daylight suddenly caught my interest. And I was standing more or less in the tulipfield, hence: from the tulipfield.
