New on 500px : Shanghai New Town at Night by AnakinYang by AnakinYang

This part of Shanghai is much newer than rest of the city, two decades ago it was nothing but farm lands. In order to fit the ever growing population, the government started developing residential area and shopping centers here and thus this part of the town doesn’t have the “old plus new cityscape” like the rest of Shanghai. The lights here at night are absolutely beautiful from all the people heading home from work, late. And the museum on the right has interesting architecture.

New on 500px : Black Hole Device, Shanghai by AnakinYang by AnakinYang

The Bund is probably the most visited tourism place in Shanghai, and in my opinion, especially great at night for photography. The city lights, the people, and the Huang Pu River just make up a fantastic night landscape. During my stay in Shanghai earlier in 2013, I went to photograph the Bund so many times at night but never got tired of it. I took this particular one from a not very popular photo spot, which gave the unique look to it, but the city lights still look amazing. This is the kind of scene you can only see in Asian cities, but not anywhere here in the States because we don’t have that high of population density I guess. There is this building by the shore of the old pier in Shanghai, it’s made to look like a singularity (black hole). I guess the Chinese government is so loaded they’ll spend money building anything.

New on 500px : A River Runs through It by AnakinYang by AnakinYang

Shanghai is probably one of the most beautiful night cities in the world (provided when there is no air pollution, LOL). Because most of the town has the “old + new” building structures tightly packed together everywhere. It’s no exception here, Here there is the old part of the town, with the old styled houses, and the 8 lane freeway running right across the middle of the city. A city that is much alive near midnight.

New on 500px : San Francisco Seaside on a Cloudy Day by AnakinYang by AnakinYang

San Francisco has fog for over 2/3 of the year, but what’s most beautiful are the days when there are low, fast moving clouds in the sky. Which in long exposure shots, make the clouds look like melting cotton candies. This is San Francisco’s Pier 9 on a cloudy day near sunset hours, the fast moving clouds were absolutely beautiful.
