Skyline of Pudong’s Lujiazui Financial District. Shot from the Garden Bridge (Chinese name: 外白渡桥 waibaiduqiao). View it large on a black background.
The Garden Bridge is the last bridge crossing Suzhou Creek before it flows into the Huangpu River. A great photo location, but the bridge vibrates notably when trucks or buses drive over it – not desirable for long exposures, one has to be patient.
Grayscaled and bluetoned version of this shot.
Slight PP: due to the hazy conditions the contrast was slightly increased, using curves.
For those interested in the rapid growth of Pudong: DvYang has a photo from 1993 in his stream – the Pearl Tower just under construction and no skyscrapers at all.
