Photographer’s Note
The largest square in the world situated in China / Beijing. I took this shot of the forbidden city (the emperial palace) with my camera standing on the ground of the Tian an Men square.

Interesting picture and good idea to take a nightshot without tripod. I think it's the first night photo of Tiananmen I've seen so it's really interesting. Maybe you could have cropped some of the bottom to get rid of the unnecessary ground part, but the pic is great anyway.

I think this is a great shot, Jan. The angle is excellent of your shot and unique. The lights of Tian an Men are beautiful and I like how you managed to capture so many people in the photo. Very well done.
