Night Light

How in the world did you manage this wide angle pic, standing in the middle of a busy road? :) Nice reminders of NYC - the subway numbers, the cabs, the jay walkers, and just the sheer number of people out and about on the streets. Good capture.

Please pm me if you want this comment removed - I'm trying to give my honest feedback.
Feels like a first attempt at capturing night scenes, and as such, has a couple of good things going for it. The starry effect on the lights for one, and no shake for another. Aside from those, I don't see any captivating subject or narrative in the picture. Just another road picture as far as I can tell. I don't even know what to make of the title. The cool flash light in the foreground is at odds with the warm lighting in the rest of the pic as well.
Keep shooting and you will come to enjoy night shooting as you improve gradually.

The blue bridge is very cool.
The combination of that with a warmly and dimly lit downtown isn't quite working for me though. Maybe a Black & White conversion?
Also, the water level is a bit too close to the center for me. And the overall detail in the picture isn't up to par - feels like a massive crop of the original capture. Maybe it's just me. Good luck.

Nice! The non-vertical composition, the beautiful lens flare top-left, the splotches of color from the traffic lights, the random lines on the road/sidewalk/underbridge - a weird combination that works well for me. A sort of fully intended randomness to the pic.

City of Blinding Lights

Good conversion to Black & White, and nice starry lights and smooth water. Bonus for including a semi-interesting foreground, but the abrupt edge on the bottom left is distracting. A minor crop or a minor change in composition would easily solve it though.

The top half would've made an impressive pic by itself I think. The bottom half is too blank for me, and it's not tone-matching the rest of the pic either. Good luck.

Times Square Scape

Love the cross-roads forming an X in the pic. A busy city that doesn't sleep - portrayed very well in this pic.

I understand that Times Square is very bright with all those screens..
I also understand that it must've been dark already because the vehicles have lights turned on.
However, it's not dark enough, and the people aren't blurry from an extended exposure. It just doesn't "feel" like a nightscape well after the sun goes down - I wonder if that's hurting your score. Good luck.

Very cool perspective. The blue building towards the center is dominating the picture entirely. Cool as it is, I think the picture might do even better as a high contrast Black and White with a little bit of the far left chopped off for balance.

If it were a crop of just those top squiggles (maybe some of them of different color from orange - maybe red/green from the traffic stops), it would've worked as an abstract. But the combination of those squiggles with the lines in the bottom half, doesn't quite work for me. Also, it's a bit too bright and burnt out in the lights that's distracting. As such, it looks like a random pic taken without a tripod or proper exposure, rather than as an abstract taken with a vision. Maybe it's just me. Good luck.

Trailing Light

Nice to see something different from a night skyline. Could've used more interest in the subject though - maybe an S-curve in the road or some such added interest. While this is a good pic, it's not outstanding enough I think. Good luck.
