This is the kind of photo which I have to learn how to take! What a sky!
Nice photo indeed.
peter:
Tripod and a long shutter speed (and a bit of photoshop) is the answer to your question :)
Your kind camera has given you a new golden photo.
You are a lucky photographer!
Have you heard about King Midas?
All you have to do is come to Stockholm, Peter! ;) Well, I'm sure you have great skies in Paris as well. As a matter of fact you will have better night skies during the coming months because it gets too light here for my kind of night shots.
Gardebring: Thanks. Most will probably use a tripod, I don't. Some might want to post-process the photo, I don't. Long shutter speed, definitely.
Lena: You're too kind. Yes, I've heard about Midas. He did get himself into trouble big time so let's stay away from his example! :)
Thanks for stopping by.
I have difficulties figuring out where you have been standing when taking this photo. You have to show me one day ;o)
Oh, yes,and it's a good one Per!
Very nice. Hope you didn't have to sit in the cold for long to get it! Unless it's warm, and then I suppose it might have been nice!
Now that is a great image.

Happy Subway Day.
What a beautiful, crisp and striking photo! Like Peter, I want to learn how to take these kinds of photos as well -- something for me to aspire to!

Probably at the same spot where you shot this one, Peter?
Halcyon: It was reasonably warm, for me at least. Some like it hot. I don't! ;)
Moworld: Thanks.
Ming(tm): We've got ourselves a nice little tradition going here, don't we.
Ptowngirl: You're too kind. Finding the right motif takes a while, the rest is no big deal in my case really. I'm using a standard compact camera and this was shot with the standard night mode and self-timer. Just one trick to remember, find a flat surface for the camera (or use a tripod if you will). That's it.
Again, thanks all.
