I got this one last summer in Melbourne, Australia. Since I'm new to this, I will try to enter the settings. Maybe they are right.

Canon EOS 550D
f/5.6
1/3 exposure time
ISO-3200
Focal Length - 20mm
No flash

Now tell me how to be better!!!

Thanks for looking!

A tripod, a lower ISO and you would have gotten a cleaner (less noisy) picture. Composition isnt bad, too many of the lights are blown maybe a lower exposure would have been a little better. Dont always trust your meter, it tells lies sometimes.

I was winging it. This was literally the first day I had the 550D. My first real SLR and I was trigger happy! Thanks for advise! Can't wait to put it to use.

Other than Rob's suggestion, I'd tone down the reds, try a different WB. Like Rob also said, enjoy the journey. Learning is a big part of the fun.
