I took this photo a few days ago when I was in Jakarta. It's Central Park, and I was on the Sky Bridge when I took this photo.
Can't lie the buildings are breathtaking (maybe because I'm used to my environment of low buildings and not the tall and glass-built ones) because every spot of the site is very interesting and photogenic. They have their own charismas and every inch is pretty. From afar, all you see is tall, glass-built and concrete building, complexing the look and feel to it, very post-modernistic. The curves aren't forced and even though it looked like so, it still managed to blend in the image as one beautifier and a touch of feminism in the site.
But sadly, as you can see.... The buildings photographed themselves looked like they're on a competition. They had their own egoes and they only stood on their conceptual points; not mentioning the bridge and the low building of the plaza, but the other photographed building. Also, the location itself is full of egoistic femmes. There are a lot of different types of building in the city and it felt sooooo much more forcefully forced. Tough it's pretty, but their unity is somewhat off.
If you're asking what they'd be if they're a live image, they'd be political parties. Egoistic and visionary in their own ways, but it's still so much more than that!
