Great night shot Ron, but then all of your pictures are just top notch. Such a clean, crisp capture. A ccc ;D

Perfect balance in composition and light sources. The architectural style (you also could have posted it under "architecture" as well) is visible in the lighting, the upper lights are like short swords, I think it's Art Deco.

Another early-morning winner! You are maintaining a nice balance in this series and this is a perfect exposure.

What an impressive lovely deep purple. 1/15 second seems very short to me.

I think you've found a unique way to express yourself with these night shots! They are fabulous. The blue tones here contrast nicely with yesterday's shot, for example, and again the contrast between bright and dark areas is really good. I could see an exhibition of these photos in a gallery.

I really love this one too, Ron. I think the whole series is outstanding. You may have answered this before, so forgive me if I missed it, but are you setting up a tripod in the middle of the road?

@Tracey: No ... all handheld. I do have IS (image stabilized) lenses which helps when shooting at these relatively slow shutter speeds. Thanks for the positive feedback, Tracey.
MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
Wow another incredible night shot Ron, this series is great.

Catching up with what I've missed the past few days - this is my favourite of the series.
