Well done Saad, your image really caught my eye. I love how you've added an extra element to your city vista to emphasise the height. The addition of your legs and feet add a sense of adrenaline and impact, which transforms a mundane city scene into something more exciting. This concept comes from the photography craze called 'rooftopping', the idea being that the photographer climbs to a high location to capture a shot to make the viewer's legs turn to jelly, which is what you've managed to achieve. You've also thought carefully about your camera settings too. You've captured a great depth of field so there's plenty of detail in the buildings nearby and in the distance, and your exposure is excellent too. This exciting and fun concept really makes your shot stand out!
