Default Pisa - Italy

Nightlife in Pisa

Taken using a bridge as a tripod on a night out from a recent trip to Italy. I wanted to retain the sweep but try crop out some of the black-space on view but couldn't figure out how to.

For reference i took this with my Pentax 40mm prime lens (the only lens I took on the holiday to challenge myself photographically!)

Any feedback (good or bad) greatly welcomed.

Great shot!

I don't know if it would improve the shot or not, but I'd be tempted to rotate the image a little ccw to straiten the reflections of the lights in the vertical to reinforce drawing the eye upwards towards the buildings.

Love the colour.

Great colours and atmosphere! Good shot, and I agree, I'd like to see it rotated a bit so the light reflections are vertical.
