This is a black and white nighttime cityscape, long exposure photo of a body of water with the light trails of passing boats and a high-rise waterfront cityscape in the background. Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong (2018). The dark harbour water rises from the base of the photo upwards to a little above the half way up level. The water at the base is pitch black with it becoming an undulating silver tone from the reflection of the bright lights of the distant, about one to two km away, high-rise waterfront cityscape. From the quarter up level to the top of the photo are a series of random wavy lines crossing the image horizontally from left to right, light trails caused by passing boats and a long camera exposure. Around the centre section of the photo, the lines are much brighter and clearly defined, with the lines towards the top having a dimmer less distinct, almost mist like appearance. Beyond, is the city's waterfront lined with multiple, brightly lit skyscrapers, many with large and illuminated signs on their roofs. Some with lighting in the shape of Christmas decorations stretching the height of those buildings, one with 'Seasons Greetings' in large neon lettering near the top. The rapidly rising terrain behind the waterfront is obscured by the misty light trails towards the top of the image.

Thank you for your kind words, it’s one unusual photo I think looks as good, both in colour as well as B&W.
