Night sights

These are a couple of photos taken on my recent holiday in France. Usually I find night photos a bit hit and miss but I am quite pleased with these.

Pleased you like them as I try to heed the advice you have given in the past about night photography like standing very still, leaning on something solid (I think there was a convenient lamp post for the Arras photo) and not breathing!!

Thank you.

Both these photos were taken after drinking a few glasses of French wine! Yet you'd think my hands would be less steady to hold the camera, LOL!
