the view from the building where i work at for Potiron (www.potiron.com.br) in the city of Campinas, Brazil.
having a "forest" inside the city was very disconcerting, in a positive sense. for lunch break, i'd go with my boss to eat at an Italian restaurant called Michelli's, and we'd walk through this park with tall palm trees. they must have been about 40-50 meters high. (130-150 feet for you Americans).
for this photo, i leaned out as much as possible to get more of the trees into the shot, and later when viewing the photo on my computer, i decided to leave only the trees in color (green) and the rest of the city in black and white, not only to draw attention to the arboreal center, but to contrast the trees with the endless cityscape.
Really nice contrasts - how do you selectively filter out colors like that?

your idea is so good the wachowskis want to steal it
get it the joke is that they stole the script for the matrix and also they stole rene descartes and turned a bunch of sixteen year old idiots into deep thinkers
But we always must remember people outside Brasil that this isn't a huge jungle with crocs and gorillas wandering our houses and shoppingmalls We don't must go to work hanging from tree to tree, like some ignorants may dream. Funny stuff
Beautiful photo, but I think you might have missed out a tree when you turned the photo black and white. There are two trees just in front of the first skyscraper on the left that are either grey or a very dark shade of green. If they are green, then sorry, I just couldn't see.
Out of interest, are the buildings mostly white anyway? Or are they a rather nasty shade of grey?
Pace.
