Very clear and crisp photos Anvil

You can really capture the beauty of Urban photograhy .. your skyscaper landscape in the first has excellent lighting and is well framed.
I love your sunrise, the lightpoles and boat shapes in the foreground add interest to that great sun
The red sculptures grabbed me at first, then the clear focus of the buildings in the background caught my attention in the third.. I really like that shot !

And what I like about the 4th is a combination of the statue framed by the building and the Tree, nice lighting too .. got a little relfection on the bronze face .. cool shot !

thanks for taking us on your walk, great photos

Vin

Fun shot to do when it is warm outside without the fountain in the foreground on.

I'm glad you didn't find the light poles distracting.

I love the Blackstone hotel (green roof).
