  Try to include in the composition, something unique to the city or region that people will recognize.

Avoid "clutter"...(needless elements of distraction).

Try night shots with time exposures in "bulb" mode with well-lit urban scenics. (You will definately need a tripod for this.)
Avoid shooting after dark from bridges or from tall buildings, as they tend to move or vibrate during long exposures and will result in blurry photos.
