Default 1st Shot at Long Exposure Nightime and Urban Sunsets

Not much to see today until the sun started going down. I was in the city so I thought I would try some "urban" sunsets.

Bob, I love these! I'm such a small town girl; I had no idea sunset could be so beautiful in the city. And what a marvelous first try at a nighttime long exposure shot -- the reflections are amazing.

Gorgeous, Bob! I love the reflections in the last one, and the symetry in the lights in the water. TFS

Wow Reelko, awesome shots! I really like night photography myself and I find your pictures even more reason to like it. You have inspired me to want to take even more nighttime shots.
Thanks,
Alan
