Linda- Beautiful. So many things to love about this one. I love the golden colors of the bridge against the blue and black of the rest of the picture. Excellent pov and composition. Clarity and sharpness amazing. Three things in pariticular that I love are the reflection on the water, the way the lights twinkle like stars, and the special touch of the moon.
Exceptional work my friend.
