Got lost (if you can call it that in such small city) in Chiang Mai, this is the local night bazaar, not the turist one.

Ok I just figured I posted a picture taken with my Oly, I'm new here, promise I'll post shots from my 10D from now on!

I like this one a lot. It could have very easily been a very run-of-the-mill, mundane, generic shot. But it is not. What grabs me about this shot is the two different color temperatures. There is a warm glow of the incandescent light in the lower half of the image slammed up against the cool - no make that cold - blue of the sky in the upper half of the image. If I were to piss and moan about something that would be the horizontal wire stretching across the image that the street lights are hanging from. There is a lot of busy background behind the wire so it might make it difficult clone, but I would still try to get rid of it. All in all, excellent shot and I would not hesitate to hang it.

'There is a warm glow of the incandescent light in the lower half of the image slammed up against the cool - no make that cold - blue of the sky in the upper half of the image.'- Very keen observation, Radtech1, you seem to have figured out the warm/cold split in no time, while it took me forever. Thanks for commenting!
