City lights

The same view of the Manila Yacht Club, Roxas Boulevard and Malate, Manila as in yesterday's photo, but taken at seven o'clock in the evening. Everything just seems so much prettier at night, don't you think so?

The lights make everything prettier. Did you take this from a boat?

Dina said...

yes, I agree with you lights do make everything prettier. Infact not so long ago I posted a photo of our 'Container , Crane terminal' which looks horrible during the day but i took a shot at night and it was all lit up and it actually made it look pretty :)

Angela:
No, not from a boat — this part of the bay is deeper inland than the part where I was standing.

This does make a nice photograph. I am not partial to night shots but city night shots are really nice to see. Thanks for your visit to my Japanese post.

Very nice contrast between the two shot, Hilda!

This one would make a fine Sky Watch Friday entry!

hilda, you did a very great job here! I really love it! Especially whenever we go up north then we pass at makati at night then as I view the window, the majestic skyline appears and the shivvers would envelope me!

I am so happy right now to hear that my cousin from Ateneo Law School has won the Debate Championships at Tokyo, Japan. I'm still not very sure about the news but I am so proud of her! i remembered that you work at Ateneo^^ God BLess you!

Yes, everything does look pretty at night. I love the reflections even more in this one!

Night time does make what might be boring, more exciting.

I love the reflections. Night shots are difficult to do well, but you've certainly succeeded with this one!

You caught the reflections on the water so nicely here.

Indeed the evening lights can make anything pretty or more beautiful. At any rate, Manila is a lovely city.

Salamat sa bisita sa Norwich Daily Photo. Will love to see you there again.

And when you get the chance, perhaps type mo rin i-visit ang aking other blogs, especially I, Woman. Would like to know your thoughts on the subject.
