ABBA: Summer Night City

Just to be upfront - I am not an ABBA fan and was totally unfamiliar with their music.
After looking at the titles, I chose Summer Night City, saw a snippet of the video and TADA!.
Here is my first night photo with the exception of the fireworks that I posted in my PAD for July 4th.

Another night photo effort is posted in my PAD:

Canon PowerShot A610
1/60s f/2.8 at 7.3mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

The lights and the shine of the streets came out really well. Good job!

i like it, carolynne :)
i am an ABBA fan, when i was in my late teens (in SOuth Africa) they were at the height of their fame, and we listened to them all the time. i think it was less so in the USA, European bands weren't as well known here.

What a coincidence.
Abba gives me gas too and I sprint away when I hear them!
