Light In The Night

Challenge #27 in the Language Of Light series. Hosted by OldArrow.

Challenge has finished

The title says all. This one is about the light sources in the darkness of the night: streetlights, highway intersections, harbor lights, lighthouses, etc. Please don't send in well-lit busy broadways and such. Those are easy. Let us see the images usually best done with a tripod and a bit of long exposure.
