Are those reflection at the bottom?

It is a nice spalsh of colors. Good POV and angle.

Nice one, Chris. The angle is interesting and all the colors make for a very appealing image. I'm amazed you managed to hand hold this shot with such a slow shutter speed (I can usually hold something like 1/50 sec, but usually I don't even try as it comes out blurry). Well done!

Hi Chris, very nice "handheld" nightshot. The colours are striking and the picture gets its special something from the reflection of the cars in the middle. Also nice how they implemented a skyline on the lower part :) Yours, Jan

Hey, I've been in Wuhan too, five years ago, but I guess that that mall wasn't built yet, then. This city grows very fast.
Wondrful colorfull composition, Chris, a very nice POV. Nice shot.
