Nice capture. It popped up as a "random photo" when I logged on to the challenge today, and I thought it must have been from before I joined, but then I thought, "Nah, it's too good for that long ago." I do think that we're all taking better photos now, having learned from and been challenged by each other, and this photo is evidence of that.

Even though I missed the green traffic lights (probably looking at the stars:-) its little details like this that can really make a shot work. Well done Abs.
Thank you photoNut, Oved, Lee, Rod and Cat for nice words.
Rod, last night i was too drunk to notice those stars and remove them with cloning kind of precise post-processing. This morning, I reduced them a little after drinking about a gallon of water and a couple of aspirins :)
Cat, you made those couple of minutes worthy, that i spent waiting for green lights, by noticing them. About the glare, I was trying for that effect. I tried to get as much glare as possible at that point. unfortunately S1 has only f/8.0 so couldnt get more. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Ahhh! What a catch, The green glass captured while the lights are green! Color repetition! I like it :-) The only change I would do is to remove the flare (although its green too, so may be not) Will have to compare both versions and see the difference. -Cat
