Well, this ain't fair! I represent three cities in the same region. Well, here it goes (since I'm only allowed one photo) for Southern Ohio!

Cincinnati-Dayton
Columbus

What the hell is the line running all the way across the reservoir in Central Park? Never seen that before, I've been there multiple times and never saw it... It looks weird.

It's a concrete levee that connects the pumphouses. Water level determines if you see it or not. Birds like it.

New York City

Is that Newark in the distance over by the right edge? Looks to be about the right place...

Edit: Nah, that looks like the Hackensack River/Newark Bay behind it, and Newark would be on the far side of that water.

Looks more like that highrise area south of Journal Square in Jersey City.

Detroit

With a shot like this it is not far off to hope that one day Detroit can bounce back to becoming a power centre that it once was. This is stunning. The early 20th century skyscrapers are just beautiful.

Lots of rep for Detroit. Here's one I took from a parking garage.

I was going to post a photo of my little city, and feel a little silly since Detroit is already overrepresented, but I could get by without posting this shot of the skyline peaking out over the enclave of Hamtramck...
