if you could get the first street lamp closest to you in the pic too i think it'd be nice

not the whole thing, a sliver would be good, to highlight the smoke..

It's a cool shot, but it seems a little off balance (slopes *very* slightly down to the right). Also, maybe retake and boost the ISO? It blackens out a little too much to the left of the street, so it's hard to tell if it's just open field, or if there are buildings there hidden by the darkness. Also, I like how the streetlight in the top left balances the one in the right, but not sure about how the actual lamp is cut off, with just the glare coming into the frame...if you could get the whole thing (by stepping back five feet or so) I think the composition would improve.

I didn't really want to show the stuff on the left, beyond the darkness because I thought it'd be adding too much to the picture. It's only some trees and some plain houses anyways. But I know what you mean about the lamp post being cut off. It does look kinda off, now that I see it. Thanks for the comment!
