Hi people! Thanks for the comments.
I was trying to use the trees as the framing, but I couldn't get them exposed the way I wanted to. It's only an A710 so I don't have the range of control I'd like. I tried a little post-processing, but it didn't look natural. I figured I'd leave them dark and hope it "worked". Apparently, I didn't. :-)

Very nicely exposed & composed shot Rob well done mate. It's possible the foreground tree is the frame but it's a bit dark to be obvious init:-)

In looking at this you could also say the hotels/casinos are framed by trees. Although they aren't real apparent, they are there on 3 sides of the buildings. ;-) CJ

This is very pretty Rob. I would venture to say you are going with "framed by darkness" here? I can kind of see it, but maybe need the bright fully surrounded by dark to bend my mind all the way there :-) Fun image.

Beautiful image and well done with colors and shadows, sharpness, etc :). I also fail to see the framing in this shot as far as the topic goes, or if it is there it is just obscure. What do you think Rob, or can you explain it? jano

Great long exposure, but what is being framed here exactly if I may ask?
