I'm starting to see people posting skylines that are mainly their top, but not their night skyline top.
Really, night skyline is sometimes based on the right amount of light, the right colors, and/or the OVERALL of buildings that are lit up in the city.
Good night skylines should have about 50%-80% of their buildings lit up, and VISIBLE.
Sometimes, you have to know mountains or beautiful architecture can't be seen at night.
Examples are such as Atlanta, Dallas, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Singapore, Las Vegas, etc.
Since I am so familiar with LA, Downtown has about 22 tall skyscrapers. About 10% of them are majorly lit up, and the others are ALSO lit up, but only their signs are.
Others like 801 are lit up recognizably. Walt Disney and Staples Center/LA Live are nicely lit up. LA's light really match together. Really, LA's skyline is very blue at night
For those who say Hong Kong is so circus-like, or flashy, then you must view the skyline from the west side of the skyline to the east. Not too much buildings are lit but it's a great amount.
Las Vegas is also nicely lit up. Not too flashy like Hong Kong. I love Las Vegas. It has every light colors. AND it's about the WHOLE building being lit up, not just partial. One thing: Neon Light. Las Vegas don't really have neon.
I like Atlanta. Atlanta is beautifully lit up because their decorations is a piece of art and can still be seen at night
Since I'm not really familiar with this, then there's not much to talk about.
Singapore is nice too! I see like 80% of the buildings being lit up. I mean, NICELY being lit up. And it's very visible!
I don't see much about Chicago nor New York. New York's lights are hardly seen, and only partially, but not much. Only a part of a skyline could be seen in lights. I think NY looks good at night from a helicopter. Times Square is a nice place. Not a skyline tho. O.o
Chicago is lit up but hardly recognizable. Aon Center and that daimond-shape building is lit pretty cool. Sears Tower only lit up the antenna... and it's the tallest building in the world... and it's not lit up that great?
Chicago needs more lightning. I thought Chicago is modern and classical... why doesn't it have modern lights? Chicago and New York are day skylines, in my opinion. I would rather put them in the lower top 15's.
They have a lot of lights... but in some in angle, it is hardly seen. Considerate the OVERALL amount of buildings in NY and Chicago and only few could be seen lit up. They look fantastic during the morning... and sunset.
EDIT:
Vancouver has an amazing skyline.
Just telling, I don't care if the city is full of residential buildings or office buildings.
I just care if it gives me a feeling. Chicago and NY don't.
Anyways, the reason why I think Vancouver's skyline is so amazing is because it is so "dead" looking.
Like the way I think LA looks so "gang" looking.
Vancouver's skyline gives me the feeling that I am looking at the last city standing on Earth, ready to be destroyed by a tornado! I remember I saw a picture of Vancouver here that's amazing.

no life. You need to go back and check the real facts before you come out here with all that crap.
