no problemo peter... looks very cool...

reminds me of a song... "setup shop on the top of four seasons"

900px is the max we long in any direction... most users choose 640x480 or a little larger etc...

Finally! Peter posts a shot

That's a nice shot. The next time you try something like that, I'd suggest:
• use a tripod
• stop down lens to f/8 (or thereabouts)
• use a lower ISO (like 100 or 200) so that your shutter speed is several seconds long
• wait for some traffic so you capture light trails on the streets

Having light trails from vehicles would add some interest and life to this shot.

Keep it coming!

The first pic was my first night there so I was not prepared for the shoot. No event that night so it was pretty dead

Here is Wednesdays game night picture, a little more action this time. Tripod was used this time. I apologize for the dirty window outside

As suggested...
