Looking for Backplate of same city skyline at day and night

[braddewald]

For the life of me I cannot track down two stock images taken from the same vantage point of daytime and nighttime. The client wants a day and night view of the same interior so obviously I need a day and night skyline that are identical.

 

Any ideas?

Raindrops on the glass blurring out the backdrop, then at night just add random lights infront of the same darkened blurry backdrop?

 

Just a thought... I know they like to pretend it doesn't rain on their building!

You'll be hard pressed to find one if you don't take one yourself.

 

I solved this few times (but only because client wasn't adamant about "full night", so dark blue dusk worked as well), by overlaying night sky and coloring over daylight image, some post-production and having nice dusky cityscape. But of course, it doesn't have lights, and if it's complicated city, that could be problem adding them with too many windows... So, this could be your last minute solution.
