Philipp Klinger has an eye for beautiful lines, shapes and patterns. In this series, he captures one of the most iconic cities in the world: Paris, France, and does it great justice. Instead of taking conventional shots of the city, Philipp goes out and captures the things you might never notice.

Night Photography of the Abandoned West

Troy Paiva, AKA Lost America, has been creating light painted night photography in abandoned locations and junkyards since 1989. His documentarian, yet surrealist, sometimes playful, sometimes haunting work examines the evolution and eventual abandonment of the communities, infrastructure and social iconography spawned during America’s 20th century expansion into the cities and deserts of the West

Surprisingly Beautiful Escalator Photography

A photographer can actually get to take some beautiful pictures out from the most common things, like escalators. I find this particularly fresh and quite nice, considering the amount of beauty found in these photographs.

The Surreal Cityscape - Black and White Photography by Martin Stavars

Martin Stavars is a master at capturing an incredible tonal range in his images. When combined with his ability to seek out powerful compositions in his cityscapes, the results are phenomenal. I’ve long been a fan of his use of long exposures to capture movement among his stationary subjects. Martin now travels the world to capture his intense and powerful cityscapes – including London, Hong Kong, Paris, and Tokyo.

Classic Photography by Henri Cartier-Bresson

I'm going to claim that this can be classified as street photography and therefore deserves to be Scooped. His images really do have a very special quality that draws you in and begs you to explore more in the photo.
