Very nice fun capture. One thing I have noticed even with my own images is that ugly smog orange haze... but its a very nice image

sweet angle. nice exposure too. I think a border would help this really stand out.

nice job! you were able to get right in there. usually these shots are from too far away.

Straightening the picture would help it along quite a lot - the buildings and lamp posts are leaning. Other than that this "night light / light streak" theme is done so often that if it's not done uniquely or really well, it's just uninteresting.

Composition: 4 - The tilted effect could work if it was MORE tilted, but at the moment its not enough to really add drama, it just looks.... a bit wonkey.
Technical: 4 - Nice stars on the lights, but the sky and general overall colours look a bit drab
Creativity: 4 - The vanishing point is good, but there is no real subject matter to add any interest.
Appeal: 4

Overall Calculated Average Score: 4
