Wow, so surreal. A little like Van Gogh borrowing Renoir's pallet.

I agree with Don. It's also an excellent entry for the contest and it's so clear that you can almost read the time!!

Agree with the comment above Jan, this is stunning. The colour of the Houses of Parliament at night is spot on, and the way you've got the light coming from the windows of all the buildings is just brilliant. I reckon the JD was the inspiration ;-)

Thanks to all my friends for the wonderful images I get to look at and learn from on Caedes every day. I always have something to say about them, but don't always have the time to record it. Please forgive me if I can't comment on all of your uploads.

Just excellent Jan. Into the faves. I really like the overall composition of this one. So much too look at and enjoy. I especially like the reflections. The sky is great contrast with buildings. Hope you do well in contest. Excellent post.

I knew it...I knew it...when I had this one in the VB I thought it could be one of Jans shots and I was right and it looks great, very dramatic with those cloudes hanging above the Westminster:))

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Yikes, sinister! Nice mood for the piece and good framing. Nice touch of yellow-green to the street lights and Big Ben face against the strong red-toned building lights. Definitely added to the mood.

I'm a huge fan of night pictures especially ones like this. But so far, this is one of the best night picture I've seen. The reflections on the water and the city lights is wonderful. The sky too is wonderful. I have never seen a picture that totally absorbs me. It feels like I've been sucked into a vortex. seriously. This is really an amazing shot.
