A too-full garbage can in a quiet street in montreal. All ambiant lighting, provided by the street lamps and the passing cars. The "neon" streak is an old truck's brake lights. It was quite windy so that's why the trees are blurry in parts.

I did some white balance adjustement while doing the RAW transfer and a little bit of tonal play in PS. No cropping.

Looks like someone needs to empty that can. I like your angle and framing/cropping. The Lights are a really cool effect. Definately garbage related. Your focus is really nice except on the trees, which were probably moving in the wind. Good shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~hbunch7187~

Nice use of long exposure at night makes this rather boring trashcan a bit more lively. Nice framing. 6/10 for the quality of the technique used. Appart from that, not very interesting. Nice try though.

I always like good nightshots. The moving traffic helps, too. 8
