A nice experiment with slow exposure. You managed to get that star effect with the streetlamps. Good touch. I think you've lost some sharpness though, which distracts from the quality of the photo. Maybe it was a low resolution shot, or maybe the tripod moved slightly? Also, you could do with editing out the lens flare in the top right hand corner. Cheers mate,

Hi Yee
Agreeded with what John Paul commented. Your pic loses some sharpness. I may put it to the reason of over exposure speed.
When taking such shot, try to experimenting with different speed, probably starting with a faster speed that gradually going to a slower speed. From there you are able to shotlist the best exposure.
Good luck.

Nice vibrant colours Kok Leong, even if it is a little blurred - it looks great on the thumbnail though! By the way, I think you should have listed this as Kuala Lumpur, because you were standing in KL when you took this shot - Selangor is on the other side of the arch ;) Cheers . . . David

Great night sjot. You have held the exposure on all the elements in this image so as not to over or under expose. The POV and perspective is good.
