A picture I took in Brussels (Belgium), a few days ago. It is a long exposure shot and I've repainted some parts of it...
The cars were really close to me and going fast! Lots of fun! If you wish, you can see some random details HERE. ____________________________________________________

Contemplation in the light Those need somewhere to go Into the circling of the night With some of its dowering glow Taking the departing by hours That's been waiting and ready In the pouring out showers Of the falling drops so steady
In the look of the city light At the evening passing gone Before labyrinth of the night Shall vanished and be done From the lanes and city routs With every sideway in its line When the shadows here intrudes With the day and falling sunshine
Reverie in dark shade Every fulsome turning point That in stepwise turning grade Comes to border the dimly joint Where the hour falls to sleep In the pondering of a dream And doorways of reality sweep Through its gloomy nightly beam
Im almost... confused by this. There is a lot going on here. the colored light streams are visually very strong. The ground is perfectly exposed and very contrasty which i love. The blue tall building is well exposed and in focus. The color gradient is nice, as well as the gold rim. The tower on the left is very intriguing... Also the gold glow of the city. I do not envy the amount of time this probably took in trial and error as well as Photoshop time. The stars are almost a tad to much. Im a big fan of to much though, which is why i love this piece!
The only problems i can spot right now are here; The blue neon sign on the right-mid is distracting but almost needed as it is a dead space. The gold globe lights going going partially up the gradient building are distracting as well. Its to bad some people had to have some lights on in the building, but you cant change that can you!!!
Overall: Very well done. Nearly flawless. I would buy a 10'X10' and display it everywhere.
This picture is very detailed and keeps the eye busy for more than just a few seconds.
Nice use of contrast with dark and light elements. I am not entirely sure this is the right thing to do, but perhaps if the lights of the buildings in the background were dimmed down a little bit, the car lights would pop out even more. It could potentialy make for a nice effect, even though the contrast is rather vibrant as it is now.
I'm curious as to how many cars passed by for you to get so many light lines! Because they all mesh at the anchor point, it gives the photo a lot of depth. They almost look like foreign to me, in the sense where if I didn't know the technique you used to take this photograph, I would think that they're purely computer generated.
Nice use of colors, as well. I love how this curious building at the left seem to radiate with light flashing up in the sky. It's as though the car lights are driven from this very spot.
I don't have much more to say about this, but I like how you used such an unconventional format for this picture. It works well!
