Incredible pics of the Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area on the previous page. I don't think many people around the world think about this being such an extensive metro area. It is huge!

Would love to visit Brazil. I love the music and culture, and once per week our public radio affiliate airs a Brazilian music show. I rarely miss it.

No city has skyscrapers Argentina, among many other things that have Australian which in turn are examples of neatness and order.

Care should be taken not to improperly publish unreal sell our country to the world.

Excellent aerial showing Denver has really good bones. It's not super-high density, but the grid makes it walkable and bikeable and relatively easy to expand transit.

No more beautiful city anywhere in the U. S. and only a handful as beautiful anywhere in the world.

I hope it's OK to post a "found video" here instead of a "found photo".

This is probably the best aerial video of Houston I've ever seen. There are some excellent shots of the various skylines (Downtown, Uptown, Med Center), as well as the port and industry along the Ship Channel.

Beautiful shots of Houston (sorry about the circumstances under which you got them). As I am learning more about the layout of the city, it appears the 1st shot is looking toward downtown from the west while the 2nd is looking from southwest of downtown toward the west/northwest. Is that correct?

The 2nd shot is on par with some cities' entire skyline, but it really is only what must be just the west side of the metro outside of downtown.

The first pic appears to be from the south.

Great video. Thanks for sharing
