Excellent capture - love the light "trails" and especially love the curved shadow of the pier railing. Do keep in mind that for some, titles are important, and the lack of one can cost you a point or two here and there. Keep up the good work!

I gave you a 10, not sure why you were not in the TT.

Very nice image, and congrats on the new PB! I agree with Alex. It might be worth considering next time you do a shot like this to throw the aperture down to about 18 or 20 or so. You'll get a nice starburst effect on the lights, which I think can be effective. Then again it be more distracting, hard to say.
Anyway.
Congrats again! Very nicely balanced image.

This is a nice image. I read your words on the new personal best thread. Sometimes a few details make you lose some extra points: the horizon is not straight (in a landscape/architecture shot is one of the most important things), the lights flare are a little distracting and last but not least the title - I wouldn't penalize you for forgetting it, but IMHO many people would.

I hope this can be useful :)

I simply forgot....I didn't notice I had forgotten the title....it wasn't laziness. Thank you for your comment and the great score. I'm dissappointed that the lack of a title would be reason to have an affect on how much someone enjoyed an image...but that is your choice, of course.

Great image; the shadows add to the composition well. (voted earlier, bumping up)
