Doc Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Hi all, The topic for the November challenge is simply "The City" - can be any aspect of any city - we are not referring to London financial district - Normal rules - each contender can provide up to 3 images, all to be from Alamy; BUT; as I am away the end of November, the closing date for entries will be Midnight on Sunday 25th November. Examples of images could include: Good luck! Kumar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Morgan Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 A tough one as there are so many aspects to a city. First, the landmark that epitomizes the city of Toronto. People doing the Edge Walk on the Top of the CN Tower. Don't think I'd ever be brave enough. Second: Toronto Blue Jays baseball fans heading into the Rogers Centre (more commonly called The Dome) for a baseball game. Third: Interior of Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal.

gvallee Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 A challenge for me as I have so few. Anyway, I'll have a go.

John Mitchell Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 This challenge kinda rings a bell, but cities always have something new to offer. Laid-back city, Vancouver Diverse city, Seattle Well-heeled city, Vancouver NOTE: Sorry about the edits, Kumar. I realized that I had submitted some of the original picks to other city-related challenges. Time for some fresh ones. Done now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Woods Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 3 from me Sign for a cycle path in Montreal Lovely Paris from on top of Notre Dame. A triumph of photographic technique as I was being jostled and bumped by, at a conservative estimate, a billion tourists all intent on wrecking my photo. Busy streets in Hong Kong. There is something in the pose of this chap that tells us he is waiting for his girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeCee Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Once a city boy, now a staunch city avoider, so hope Sidmouth (more town than city) will qualify... Back in my days working in Birmingham, Victorian brickwork in the jewellery quarter. And another from Birmingham, a worker at the roof of the Remembrance Hall.

I think you already have a difficult decision picking just 8. And I think it will be difficult for the rest of us choosing just 1 of your chosen 8!

Avpics Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 The only city I've really visited 'photographically' is the one nearby, London, of which I have over 6000 images. Difficult to know where to start with a subject so vast. Vibrant, exciting, dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
