Hiya,

I'm doing a small personal project and i'm looking for city images like an apartment view, I tried numerous variations in Google, but not getting any usable images.
Where do you get your images?

Kind Regards

Well aren't you the funny one, nah more up close, like say you would open your window on the 5fth floor and look at a building across. I spend a shit load time on google and not finding anything usable, so maybe there is like a website like CGtextures with some real good city footage.

(Sorry, no pun intended its just an image worth thousand words and i can express myself clearly in english).

If i recall correctly there is some spherical hdris you could use... let me check...

"Barcelona rooftops", "Helipad Afternoon", "Shiodome stairs", "alley" Check this galleries from HDR labs http://www.hdrlabs.com/sibl/archive.html

And some of the openfootage "menilmontant"... they have some you have to search a little their galleries.
http://www.openfootage.net/?tag=paris maybe you could use...


And if you have some change to spare, definitively an professionaly search in "moofe" web site.

You'll find very little.

I had to oppose Boris's MOOFE suggestion, that one is take always from human perspective for matching cars so, and I browse it quite often :- ) It's not usable for archviz.

HDRLabs and and Openfootage have as well altogether maybe 4-5, but still not what you can probably use or are after.

Borrow 8mm lens for fullframe DSLR and take few yourself (hard if you're after specific look like NYC or Dubai :- ).. ) perhaps
