overwhelming

many of us live in cities, where at times the sheer urban density, all the straight lines and grids, can seem overwhelming...not sure if this captures a bustling metropolitan scene, or just a lot of visual clutter

overwhelming, I live near the woods in the country, but love to see this for one day and then hurry back.

Very good night shot. V

Overwhelming....vision critical! A neon warning of over neonization perhaps.
I do like the variety of light at different temperatures. V

The overview does look rather overwhelming, but most people tend to wrap themselves in their own space and are not distracted by the enormous grid we call a city. This is where family and friends play such an important role. At least, in my opinion. Having said all that, I don't want to distract from admiring this superb night scene. V

Once you pose the question, visual clutter becomes the dominant tone: bouncing lights, atonal cacophony, no place to run or hide. What cost these megawatts?

Well seen --- I agree it is almost overwhelming to keep this in order.

Love that sign, it sums up how I feel about this, or maybe vision overload would do ...
Walter Otto Koenig29-Oct-2011 17:19
Lots to see in this image for sure. Nicely topped by the "Vision Critical" sign which speaks volumes for this almost chaotic scene. "V"

Good night shot David, the light leads the eye....

impressive.. a great perspective to show it.. stories behind those lights, among those windows.. and "visioncritical" present, as well.
