Nice shots. Love the second shot with the reflection of light on the skyscraper.

What lens were you using for this shot?

Nice shots. I like #2 as well the colors are really nice. But I think #1 has more potential, I'd like to see a different processed version.

Also how much time between the shots?

Nice second shot, I agree. A rarity with so little traffic in front of you.

Hey, thanks guys!!!! I'm pretty psyched with these too, especially #2. I used a 12-24mm on a tripod. As far as not getting hit, I don't know how I did that. I would wait for the light to turn red, set the tripod down, compose, and start shooting. I held up traffic a couple of times, and also came close to a couple of others (forgot about those people that turn from the side streets at first). Not sure how much time between each photo Roby, but I was out there for about an hour total.
