This might have been a better 'fill the frame' shot. I'm missing the 'urban landscape -- picture of buildings' feel here.

Are they buildings or commercials?

No fair ... nothing like this in my town. Great use of color.

Good balance of light, excellent composition.

The streaks from the bus/truck are drawing my eye more than the rest of the picture, which is a shame because there are interesting things in the photo.

First, I'm amazed it seems you've got people frozen like it was a quick shutter, but yet this looks like a night shot which would require a long exposure -- how did you do that? Well, perhaps because it wasn't yet dark yet? I see the clouds in the dark blue sky which wouldn't be visible if it were purely night. Anyway, challenge points off for not having a 'photo of buildings' (one building does not buildings make), technical points off for choice of cropping -- maybe this really should be aesthetic and not technical, but I'm going to slow as it is.

The challenge called for 'pictures of buildings (plural), but from a strictly "Urban" perspective, I think you nailed it. Again though, you missed the "landscape" part of the challenge. Still, love the colors.

Too white -- near blown out in spots. Overall effect makes it look like a 'clean city' though.

Photo seems a little flat and lifeless, but I do like the single point of light -- I guess I'm contradicting myself.

Crap... how am I supposed to win any challenges when I keep giving out 10s -- oh sure... they're deserved, but that's not my point... I want to WIN! OK, enough whining... This is the 3rd or 4th 10 I've passed out, and this is so far, the best of them. Your image is great -- I love the colors cast by the varous lights and a nice use of the star filter. Overall lighting is spot on. Well done -- but next time, take it easy. I want to win sometime, OK?

I think I've seen these buildings in other photos and in at least one movie. Photo attempts to be symmetric, but fails -- needs to be cropped a little more on the right to make the edge the same as on the left -- also in looking closer, the whole thing tilts to the right.
