What a lovely picture. How different the feeling would have been had the lights been red. I like this cool look much better. It feels very safe. I'm thinking that red would have created a very omimous mood.
Annie, interesting you should say that - I have spent many minutes debating and decided the shot taken just before this with the red lights was too jarring.
Diane, and hopefully they will for a long time until those new, ugly, energy efficient, blinding lightbulbs are put in. I much prefer the golden glow of these older models.

Beautiful picture, I'm always fascinated by reflections and city lights night!

Nice image there. Rain transforms the scene.
Leia: I enjoy looking out over the city more at night than daytime. It always changes and delights.
Michael: it would look just ordinary the night before.
Delightful colors, the streets look like they're made of gold!

I like this picture a lot. The more I look at it the more I like it.
James, why thank you. I'm pleased you like.
I like these reflections very much! Now why didn't I think of that?
I love the mood of this photo. Really neat shot! Kathy
Stine has already said what my thoughts were. Grand shot!
Very nice photo. I love night photography. This one makes me want to be out of the car and into a warm robe.
Stine: thanks, it was a late inspiration for me. I wanted a change from windows.
Kathy: this reminds me of a movie shots...
cieldequimper: thank you
John: this was my practice at night photography. a warm robe was needed for the damp air on the balcony!
A very beautiful night shot, I love all the lights and reflections.

It's amazing how a place can be transformed by lights reflecting from dark surfaces.
Squirrel: city lights can be pretty cool
Dimple: it's a form of urban mood lighting - too much and it's distracting.
Grooving all the way
in the night
with Kind of Blue
and the slow rain
playing in the background
Thanks VioletSky
Chrome3d: it is, as a musical interlude, a rainy night...
That is just awesome. Rain brings out so much reflection in everything. Well done :)
Thom: thanks. we've had so little rain lately, now I want more to practice my night shots!
I get mesmerised with those type of reflections good shot!
Diane: so do I. sometimes, the reflection seems to stretch on and on. the long blue bit is from a hotel sign several storeys up.
Wonderful night reflection. :)
Ida: thank you
Great night photography! The rain cooperated, giving your the best reflections of the city lights!
Ebie: thanks, now next purchase will be a tripod!
That's a very nice reflection of a rainy city in the night time. Well done. I like it a lot. Makes me feel all cozy.
Nora: thanks, it is nice to look down on the street and see a light show.
I really like the way the headlights are reflected. Great picture!
Serendipita: thank you, it took awhile to get just the right headlights!
Nice green and blue colors on the streets.
Therese: I was quite pleased that there were no red lights; that would have been distracting.
