Plaza Hotel of Home Alone 2 fame. I'm new to digital photography, so nothing sophisticated here. Used "night portrait" scene mode with auto focus and applied sharpening and some brightness to entire image. With slow shutter speed, note transparent pedestrian in cross-walk in foreground.

OK, I definitely used a too obscure title. I thought more people might recognize the Plaza Hotel in NYC and be familiar with the popular kids' "Home Alone 2" movie starring McCaulie Caulkin as Kevin. Kevin's mom screams his name when she realizes he's been left behind and he spends the whole movie at this hotel being pursued by bad guys. My first submittal....I'm learning. Thanks for your helpful comments.
I'm taking a wild guess but.. is this the hotel Kevin McAllister stayed at in Home Alone2? If not, I definitely don't get the title. The color is nice, perfect lighting. The alone connection (if I was right) is a little tenuous but there. Interesting shot regardless. 6
I don't think I understand your point, I'm afraid. I quite like the blur of the figure moving across the street, especially as all the other figures are so static, but that seems incidental to the shot, which appears just to be an architectural night shot. And then the photo's title just throws me completely. Feel free to PM me and explain, but don't expect any icrease in score :-)
