It not only counts, it is in my opinion the best time to shoot night scenes: while there is still some color in the sky. Most photos taken after the "Blue Period" that follows sunset tend to end up with big, black voids where the sky should be, and then, more often than not, the balance point between the ambient and artificial light has long passed. You hit a good balance here and got a great combination of warm and cool hues, which is the real reward of nailing a Blue Period shot. One thing you might consider doing next time is bringing along a flashlight, maybe gelled with 1/4 or 1/2 CTO, and adding a little light to the signs by 'painting' them with the flashlight during those 16 seconds of exposure. They're a bit dull in the mix here, and some extra light could up the 'punch' a bit. You'd have to be careful to avoid clipping any highlights, but it's worth trying, at least.

Not in the same league as the rest of the shots in this thread, but here's the volcano at the Mirage in Las Vegas.

@catch127 Interesting post processing there catch127 almost looks HDR/IR image combined!
@p27rpy Neat shot, guessing that was hand-held? Came out quite nice :)

Hey I saw this got explored on flickr. Great job man I really like this shot. Did you sneak a tripod up there or did you have another way to stabilize the camera?

I received a Canon 50mm f/1.4 for Christmas so I went out and tried to shoot a few night shots of my home town. C&C appreciated.
