Skylines of largest Nordic&Baltic cities
Everyone is welcome to post pictures of skylines (only) of N&B (only) cities around 100k +. This would enable easy evaluation, comparison and search for them.
2 pics per day per individual would keep it easy to go over. P.S. If there is a similar thread delete this one or merge it. Riga Autumn 2008 image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr

Small and low quality photo from probably one of the best places to take photos of Vilnius new skyline:

Great idea! It inspires me to another thread idea: "aerials of largest N&B cities". These 2 photos are really great and unusual of Riga. Oh God, these days are so much to photograph in Riga - new TV Tower enlightenment, 30 other light decorations in festivity time, and then also this lunapark tower should be worth to visit surely. And just today I bought 70-300 mm lens! Only problem now - to find time to get all these photos!
Regarding to this thread - tried to find "skyline" of other latvian city which belongs your defined criteria - Daugavpils, but couldn't find and doubt there is any such pic becaus Daugavpils hasn't much of a skyline

 Oslo pics are not a skyline pics, sorry. City skyline - city silhouette at horizon, there is mountains at horizon.

Right, hadn't thought of that Made a quick search and have come up with alternative pics to fit the criteria. Last edited by joamox; November 14th, 2008 at 12:49 AM. |

Thanks - photos are great. I am looking forwards to see more Helsinki and Copenhagen skylines... and some Stockholm as well
I like the way Malmo/CPH Bridge supplements the skyline.

Nice one - haven't heard any news from Klaipeda lately. Skyline for the size of the city is so cool.
