No skyscrapers in our city, in fact as cities go, you’d be forgiven for not realising that it is one! It was once historically very important, but not anymore. It does though, contain lots of history, particularly dating back to Roman times & the middle ages. The city is divided into two halves, though not visibly, “down hill” & “up hill’ . This view was gained from the top of a car park, we did struggle to find something high enough to give us a decent view. There was metal work up there which hindered the view, but I guess it’s to stop jumpers! The view shows, a small amount of the lower half of the city in the foreground & the rest is up hill, mainly houses on a hillside, top right can be seen the wall of Lincoln Castle.
A fabulous capture. I really like Lincoln but sadly our friends who used to live there have moved away. We'll have to think of another reason to go there.
Stroudsburg has a similar issue- it doesn't look at all like a city but is designated as such. While your city doesn't have skyscrapers, it does look like a city from this view- at least I think so! The only time Stroudsburg looks like a city is when I take a shot of Main Street- but everywhere else, it just looks like urban sprawl. Nice shot!
A lovely black & white capture of lovely Lincoln. I’ve only been once briefly but I thought it a lovely city & amazingly hilly which I hadn’t realised!
I like the pov and your image in b&w. From what I’ve seen of your photos, it is a beautiful small city. It has modern and historic architectures, trees and even a castle. It has a population similar to my city, but much more history.
