Great depth of field. I like the rim lighting and cool tones on the statue.

DMTC (Does Meet This Challenge) I also like the busy and active look for this image. Good grab. Good for you for putting it in the "Urban' challenge.

no problem, it took me a few months to realize this also and I was looking for it. :) glad I could help.

You do have such equipment! :) The D50 has rear curtain sync mode. You know where you press the button to pop the flash? While hold that button down and twist the dial where you change settings in the top right on the back of the camera. If you look at your LCD screen you should see the little box where the flash is change to rear eventually, that is the mode ann is talking about. :) Check your manual for more explanation.

If you like it, that's all that counts. From my perspective, (feel free to ignore me) the biggest thing that could be improved is the exposure balance. The taxis are pretty well exposed, but signs on the left are all completely blown out. If it were me....(again, it's yours, not mine), I think I would try to keep the long exposure, but drop the ISO down a couple of stops, and use rear curtain flash to light the taxis. That would make the taxis sharp (sort of), and drop the exposure on the lights, without killing the cool movement effects.

Oh if I only had such equipment! Thanks for the helpful comment.
