My wife and I visited San Diego this month and frankly, I love this city...the whole area is gorgeous.

Here is the city before the sun had completely set.

    Nice
    I wonder if the horizon is leaning to the right or if my head is leaning to the left.headscratch.gif

    Gorgeous shots, David!! clap.gif

    I'm with Grimace, great sky in the first one! I've taken a number of stabs at the skyline here and have yet to get anything as good as either of these! Well done!

    Interesting thought..I have lived in San Diego a few times.. .and from that location on Coronado, the mainland is getting closer to you from the left side of the image, so that would give a natural tilt in a photo.. should the OP correct that angle to give a straight horizon? Or shoot it as it truly exists? I am asking out of my own ignorance :)

    Check the verticals in cityscapes- The rest will be where it belongs. These shots are fine. And very nice I might add.
    Anybody can do it.
