It's kinda dull around here on a Thursday night, but this place had some activity. Even though I am submitting this photo for your C&C, I have an idea or 2 of my own that I'd like to run by you.
This was taken just after sunset and hand-held, but I think I should try again even later, on a tripod with a much longer exposure to try to get some trailing tail lights from cars passing by on the right. Maybe pick an evening with some clouds in the sky too.
Another idea is to ask some friends to sort of mill around outside to add some interest and movement. I might even try painting a little light on them with a really bright LED flashlight I have.
Anyway, this is what I got this evening. Nikon D810, Tamron SP 15-30mm F/2.8 Di VC USD at 15mm, f/5.6, 1/40s, ISO 400, hand-held.
By the way, this lens is amazingly sharp (the camera helps too, I s'pose). I can read signs and license plates way far down the street in the full-size version.
