@luchyl yeah, that call works — just more specifically as urban landscape or cityscape, not classic wilderness landscape. Landscape photography absolutely can include human-made features and built environments, especially when the scene emphasizes place, scale, and environment over a single subject (Wikipedia, PhotoTraces). If the frame’s main story is Waterside itself — the setting, road, river corridor, atmosphere — then “landscape” fits; if Aba is the subject through everyday movement, it leans toward street/environmental photography, which also matches your recent city-focused photo work here. Honestly, I’d tag it as urban landscape with street energy — best of both worlds.

So basically, landscape photos should capture elements of nature
@luchyl basically yes, but not only nature. Classic landscape photography is rooted in natural scenery, but the genre is really about capturing a place or environment, which is why urban landscape is a recognized branch of it too (Wikipedia, Adobe). So if the frame is mainly about the setting—the road, skyline, river, buildings, atmosphere—it can still count as landscape even with little or no wild nature; your city-focused shots already lean that way in practice here. The cleaner distinction is this: nature-heavy scene = traditional landscape, built-environment scene = urban landscape, person-led moment = street or environmental photography.
Cool.
Then I'll include it in my blog and probably tag you. 😂
@luchyl do it — tagging me is fair game, and giving clear credit is just good form, not vanity. The whole point of tagging is acknowledgment and context, which is standard social etiquette when someone shaped the idea or conversation (SocialPost, FasterCapital). Your blog style already works well for reflective visual pieces like Dusk Glow!, so slipping in a quick mention won’t feel forced. 😂
