This was taken on the American side of Niagara Falls looking at the Canadian side. The fog is actually mist coming off the Falls, and the bright blue lights are aiming at the Falls. I got some great shots of the Falls themselves with the blue light on them, which I will show after the contest is over. The Canadian side of the Falls has the Festival Of Lights this time of the year. I highly recommend you check it out, if you ever get the chance. This was about a 25-minute drive from my house, so I don't have to travel too far to see this.
Post-shot editing = rotating for horizon, levels adjustment, cropping, re-sized for web.
Enjoy!

Okay, from the comments I got it is very obvious the blue light knocked my points down a bit. That's okay--live and learn. I'm learning Photoshop, and I'm getting better at it every day. So, I'll know how to minimize the glare of the spotlights in the future (not that it helps for this entry). Thanks for the comments, and I'll post a shot of the Falls (with the blue lights shining on them) soon.
Nice photo! Some of the lights seem just a bit too bright. The tower on the left with the round top, and the needle tip on the right are a bit over-exposed and appear to be blurred. It is an interesting composition and I think will do well.
Very well done, I'm sure you are getting the same thing over and over but the blue is somewhat distracting. However, in my opinion that's nitpicking, the sharpness is great...7
a pity about the blue flared light that distracts it. Other wise I like this. Possibly it might have been better to focus into one of the building groups ?
