Delightfully Psychedelic City

Interesting. I think this might have been even stronger had you filled the frame with the busy signs, even the street as the empty black sky dilutes the intensity of the signs

Thanks everyone for your votes, comments and encouragement ... a Blue Ribbon! Brilliant!! Personally, I think this is one of my best ever photos.
@mark082: the swirl is actually a pearl necklace, but as it was submerged and the shot was taken on a slow shutter, came out blurred by the current and bubbles on the surface. The chest was completely submerged, so the open wooden chest lid is floating close to the surface but moving due to the current.
@Magnum_za: Yes, the darkness had me questioning myself, but the lighter versions just don't do it for me. The environment was left as i found it except for perhaps a few stray coins that I couldn't reach on the stream bed. I have asked the SC if they can correct my lousy spelling .... fingers crossed :)
