These sakura trees with far east buildings (I cound not be sure they are Japanese or Chinese or Korean) are absolutely incredible. I love them, but unfortunately a small single detail ruins them. Ugly yellow school buses.

The older Asian themed BATs are nice, but the effect of what you're going for seems to lost with the standard roads, the school buses, the HoW, and the underground mall. If this were supposed to be a themed shopping center or a theme park, then it works ok (and a caption would really help you here), but otherwise it's mostly a nice setup that is killed by details, particularly when your competition is as stiff as Kisa.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I like both pictures, and although I didn't vote for 976's photo the first time around, I've changed my mind. I really like the close-up view with the crowds of people. My only suggestion is to show a bunch of people crossing the street at the crosswalks to complete the crowded big-city effect that you're going for.

The other photo by jijdlswns is pretty good, and I like that style of buildings as well as the canals and the trees in bloom. But, as others have said, there are small details like the yellow school buses (not something you'd see in Korea) and the generic Maxis House of Worship that sort of kill it for me. So there's just a few small details that should be addressed if you really want to make this a great photo.

From a realism perspective, both pictures are absolutely fantastic, but given the trams, pedestrian spaces, old buildings and cafés, I think I'd rather live in feyss' city (which by the way has very much the atmosphere of Geneva with that cathedral there :)).

Then let's keep it at 976 as it is your username here. Except of course if you change your name by asking an administrator. :)

Would have loved to see a tram on that pic, feyss. But unfortunately, I prefer Shibuya's busy crossing.
