Skylines are work of arts: who has not stopped in awe when seeing
the skyline of New York City or Dubai? But beyond art, a skyline is a
city’s identity. Each skyline is unique, and many cities can be instantly
recognized by their skyline. This uniqueness comes from decades of
history, reflected by the ever-changing skyline: old and new, famous
and unknown are side by side.

This series aims at showing skylines in all their glory, in a panoramic
format that suits them perfectly. Captured in several images stitched
together, these pictures can be printed in a very large format, allowing
the viewer to explore the details of the city’s history. This is an on-
going project, since skylines are constantly evolving and there are still
many cities I want to add to this series.
