yes good use of the wideangle. I would add to Phil's comments, to me this looks more like man (and woman) 'overwhelming' nature, rather than in harmony! A reflection of our 21st century world. Though of course man (and everything s/he makes) is part of nature, and therefore can never be above or separate from it.

****Your finest Cityscape so far in this gallery Jen, because of the way you abstract elements through your choices in light and vantage point and organize the image in layers of meaning. The foliage is new layer, implying that this structure not houses people but functions as a home for plants as well -- man and nature in harmony. The next layer is a giant cage, enclosing us, not letting us out. Yet we still can see the final layer beyond the cage -- more massive buildings one of them looking almost like a human form with bowed head.
