Photographer’s Note
It had loads of traffic on that day. It suddenly came to my mind to capture this scene in a very dangerous moment.

Great NightShot. You captured the building very sharply and I like the light effects.

this one's going into my favourites. i really like it, it's got a surreal feeling to it. the bright unending lights and the phantom bus that stands near and eventually starts driving away.
your welcome to visit some of my shots, which unfortunetly for myself arent as good as yours...

having an exposure for 15 sec is really a great result. I liked this night shot beacause of the movement of the cars in the fg as well as the static colosium.. Its nice to see that monument at night.Cheers.

This is a fabulous night shot, Siu. Congratulations. The setting is splendid, the colours vivid, the scene vibrant. Very impressive. Regards, John.

Wonderful work! The ghostly image of the bus at right juxtaposed with the coloseum (also a ghostly place) is not just a coincidence--it had to be planned by you. My compliments! This could easily be sold as a poster--perhaps you have looked into it.
Congratulations!

Hi,
it's superb composition ! thr colors due to a long exposure time provide a realy dynamic scene. the building is sharp and well focused. the sky is deeply dark even after a scan !
Well done, but don't take to much risk :-)
Michael.

This picture reminds me the first one I criticized on TE. Same city, same light, same hour, same traffic. This picture gives me a strange sensation thinking at the contrast between the old coliseum and the modern means of transport. Think that in the point you took this picture ancient Romans used to comment the fights and then they went home on foot.
Good composition and very good exposure

Hi Siu,
This is an amazing night view, the constant flow of lights coming and going, plus the ghostlike bus against the well lit and sharp coliseum, its just perfection
Regards

Hi Kenneth,
Great nocturnal picture. Light effects were superb. 15 seconds exposure worked well. Great shot.
