Some night shots of Osaka from the Umeda Sky Garden Observatory

[daggah]

Gotta love blue hour...and city observatories in Japan that actually allow tripods!

Nice! Is the last image shot from the city observatory? I hope it's not too hard to find as I am going to Osaka in a few months. But I will only be there during the day.

Yup, same observatory, just the other side.

I took all the pictures from the indoor deck, but there's a roof level one too. It's just a little annoying because the railing and walkway on the roof doesn't go out to the very edge of the building, so you end up being more limited in your composition. I just used my hoody to block reflections on the windows from entering my shot.

Awesome shots! Look forward to hopefully getting some of these myself the next couple years. Headed to Iwakuni but hope to travel quite extensively.

The last one is amazing!

Seems that You've found a perfect perspective!

I'm only wandering whether the horizon line isn't falling the left? But it can be only an impression.
