Hello Neyvan,
I'm always a bit surprised to find a picture like this with a name as 'the old centre' (or 'the old downtown') because the centres of big cities here look a little different.
But I've to admit that you've turned this urban jungle of skyscrapers into a colourful world. The big building on the foreground (centre right) has collected the most colours. It's façade must be one big mirror.
And here and there we discover some green oasis between the skyscrapers.
Best wishes for a happy New Year, Paul

Hallo Neyvan!
What an impressive city, what a jungle of high risers and urban canyons. Your point of view couldn't be better in oder to show this city.
But - live there? Never! ;-)
Greetings from cold but rainy Germany - and a Happy New Year to you and yours!

Bonjour, cher Neyvan,
La vue plongeante sur la ville est vraiment impressionnante. Tout au loin nous distinguons des montagnes qui font plaisir à voir. L'image est de qualité et les couleurs sont parfaitement rendues. Une mégalopole impressionnante.
Félicitations (j'ai regardé les dernières photos traitant de la ville, c'est très intéressant).
Amitiés.
Excellentes fêtes de fin d'année.
Amitiés.

Hi Neyvan,
Looks like an enorous city with high buildings everywhere. A remarkable irregularity here, but this also creates a very good picture, a quite artistic approach. Plenty of fine colours here too!
Kind regards

You must have spent a lot of time on your high 'perch' to get so many city views. The building which is most eye-catching here is bottom right with the reflections.

Olá Ney,
fantástica la perspectiva de la ciudad, tomada desde un lugar más elevado que los propios rascacielos. Tu punto de vista fue magnífico para mostrarnos la gran urbe.
Excelente profundidad y muy buena luz.
Un abrazo,

Ah! Eis então um heliponto nessa cidade que tem a segunda maior frota de helicopteros do mundo, atrás apenas (e por muito pouco) de New York. Beleza de fotografia.
Um 2010 repleto de felicidade pra vc!

Bom-dia Neyvan,
Compreendo a tua fixação à esta cidade que é a tua cidade. Encontro-o magnífico e espetacular. encontro-o também demasiado grande para mim que é habituado as pequenas cidades e à pequenas aldeias ou aldeolas. É verdadeira uma floresta artificial que afasta muito distante a montanha ao horizonte. Uma boa fotografia e muito bom um documento interessante. Bravo.
Passa um bom dia.
MEILLEURS VOEUX DE BONNE ANNÉE 2010!
Cordialmente.
Joël

Outra bela foto da cidade, acredito que uma versão preta e branco também seria atraente, mas em cores quebra aquele clima de cidade cinzenta e ficou ótimo!
Falando em cores os arquiteros paulistas poderiam investir em prédios mais coloridos não acha? Acho que isso tratia mais alegria a cidade. Em Salvador eu bem vi prédios azuis e vermelhos na parte nova da cidade.
Bom enquadramento.
Abraço
Andre

Hello Neyvan,
I didn't know that Sao Paulo has so many skyscrapers that way looks like a forest of tall buildings.
It is very nice panoramic view of the city. Amazing colors, light and sharpness.
Best regards and have a wonderful 2010.

Hello again Neyvan,
This photo really shows the grand scale of Sao Paulo, one of the world's largest cities. Some of the architecture is very similar, but the gold building in the FG has an interesting reflective property about it. The hills in the background provide a wonderful finge to the city in the distance. A place I'd like to see for myself someday.
Matt
