Thank you very much for commenting, Renee, Usman, Michelle and Jack! It's a pleasure to know you like it.Usman, I took this photo with my Nikon 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5 AF-S DX lens. The settings were: 18mm, 1/20 sec, f/3.5, ISO 640. The exposure was a little longer and I didn't have my tripod with me, so instead I braced my hand against the balcony from where I was taking this shot ;-)
