Incredible! At the same time I can see the volcano, I can also see the city almost merging with that! Everything seems to be the same! Great shot!

Excellent picture.
The city is completely lit and the main avenues can be distinguished from the sea of lights. At the same time there is enough daylight to let us distinguish the silhouettes of the mountains surrounding the city.
I think that the cloud to the left is being illuminated from below by the lights of the city. Am I right?
What is the source of the red-orange light towards the bottom of the picture, like a line of flowing lava?
Best regards.

Wow, what excellent lighting you have in this photo. The city is completely lit up, while on the right there is still some sunlight remaining. The colours are fantastic, and I like the city's lights on the cloud above it. You managed the light perfectly with the exposure.

A stunning photo. Do post more from here please!!!

Beautiful picture! Literally breathtaking! (I was on Cotopaxi once, so I know.) The streaks of the car taillights are a bit grainy, could be smoothed out with a smudge brush.

The exposure is a perfect capture.
