Can anyone peg down which cityscape they used for the Utopia Living setting?

Of course it didn't come with the product and I'm really curious what they used so I can pick it up for myself and complete the look.

    I suspect that that is a photograph. I could be wrong.

    modern apt 39 came with a picure for outside the window.

    Indeed that's my guess too. It is a photo with a uniform gaussian blur applied to it. The "depth of field" looks all wrong because of that.

    I think it is a picture, also, used as the Environment Backdrop. It is always the same perspective, no matter from which direction the shot is made.

    The exact same buildings in each shot even.

    And the horizon doesn't line up well, though that's harder to notice because of the angled camera.

    The picture was probably added as a layer in post. If you look at the shadow of the female in the main image, and then look at the shadows on the building, they do not align.

    What caught my attention was the variety of the buildings. They're clearly a piecemeal of different periods and architectural styles, which not very many of the urban sets that I see seem to be. The uniform blur also suggests as much.

    It also looks vaguely familiar, although I'm not sure it's anywhere I've ever actually been. But I may have seen a photo of it from much the same angle.

    ImagineX has a couple of "cityscapes" backgrounds that may help if you're wanting background cities that don't take massive resources, I use them a lot behind windows etc. I don't think the ones used in the Utopia Living Cityscape are those tho, it looks more like a postwork photograph.
