 This is my second night of doing night photography. I had a blast, and cant believe living so close to these spots I haven't given it a try before.

These are my first attempts, and few were successful with my $6 Best Buy clearance tripod. I also learned to always keep a jacket in my trunk! Even on nice days it gets cold standing out there during those 30s exposures.

A good solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image with rich color and detail - a typical urban setting. A well thought out and applied title gives this image a very important wow factor and frames the author's intent perfectly. A complete technical and artistic success. Given the subject matter, it may not have universal appeal. Well done.

I've shot lots of photos from here, some have even done well in the challenges. I like that you included Qwest field. And I like the flow of traffic that leads me into the city. Well done!
