Just seeing if I can shoehorn this in. What the hell haven't entered a contest in a long time.

This is an okay night shot...but I have to say that I'm a little surprised it scored as well as it did. It appears a little crooked to me and there just doesn't seem to be much art to this shot...not a whole lot of interest to the subject, composition and presentation. I'm sure it was a cool thing to see in person, but I find this to be just average as a photograph. Apparently, many others like it more than me :) So I will say congratulations on a nice finish and score with this one.
Woo Hoo!! Congratulations on your new Personal Best, breaking the 6 barrier and hitting the top 20 James!! And to think I was standing right next to you while you were shooting this. I feel special. ;-)
