I don’t know about you, but I love doing urban landscapes just as much as I love being out in nature and the countryside. The latter traditionally tries to act like man has had no hand in the scene, but being in a city is all about the human influence, from gritty back alleys to city palaces. It could be a row of quaint cottages in a suburb or towering office blocks, or even the juxtaposition of both.
