This dramatic photograph by David Drebin captures Shanghai's iconic Pudong skyline at night. The image showcases the city's futuristic architecture along the Huangpu River, with the distinctive Oriental Pearl Tower glowing in vibrant purple and pink hues against a moody, storm-cloud-filled sky.
The composition spans the curve of the riverfront, with the modern skyscrapers of Lujiazui financial district dominating the left side of the frame. The buildings are illuminated in various colors, creating a symphony of lights that reflect off the river's surface. The purple-tinted atmosphere gives the scene an almost science fiction quality, suggesting a city of the future rather than one of the present.
The photograph is taken from an elevated vantage point, allowing for a sweeping view that captures both the monumental scale of the architecture and the graceful curve of the river. The water traffic below - boats with their own lights - adds movement and scale to the scene.
Drebin's signature style is evident in how he's captured this urban landscape: the dramatic lighting, the saturated colors, and the almost otherworldly atmosphere created by the interplay of natural and artificial light. The purple storm clouds add a layer of drama and mystery to the scene, while the city lights pierce through the darkness, creating a powerful contrast.
This image effectively captures Shanghai's reputation as one of the world's most futuristic-looking cities, while the moody atmosphere adds an artistic and emotional dimension that transcends a simple cityscape photograph.
David Drebin (*1970 Canada) has published several photography books including "Love and Other Stories" (2007), "The Morning After" (2010), and "Beautiful Disasters." Beyond photography, he has expanded into other artistic mediums including lightboxes, neon installations, and etched glass works.
His photographs often create a sense of mystery and intrigue, frequently capturing moments that feel like they're part of a larger narrative. His cityscapes and landscapes, like the Capri image you shared, typically feature dramatic lighting and composition that evoke an emotional response.
Drebin's work is collected worldwide and has been exhibited in numerous galleries and art fairs. He's also known for his commercial work with luxury brands and his editorial contributions to major magazines.

David Drebin
Love stories and landscapes are at the foundation of David Drebin's panoramas, portraits, and neon sculptures.
Drebin's monograph Love and Other Stories (2007) features solitary women in urban tableaux — high-rise apartments buildings and terraces, freeway overpasses and hotel rooms. Dressed alternately in bikinis, evening gowns, and negligees, the women appear to be in various stages of a love affair. They pout while lying on couches and ascend grand staircases; their legs emerge from doorways and car doors, their concealed upper bodies assumedly engaged in passionate embraces. Drebin's cityscapes present sweeping views of famous locales such as Jerusalem, Paris, and New York and incorporate both built and natural features. In “San Francisco Dusk” (2010), an illuminated grid of buildings reaches toward the misty blue horizon of the Pacific Ocean.
