This is my first try at a landscape with my new camera and it's my first ever long exposure at night.

I think I picked a pretty challenging subject for my first attempt. It's the Zagreb Avenue. If you'll ever be visiting Zagreb and you happen to be coming from the West, this is the road you'll be driving on.

I have to say, the picture is pretty different from what I imagined it to be when the idea first came to my mind. I think a wider lens would have done this picture more justice but I only have my 18-135 so...

The flowers in the middle are really something you don't see on a lot of highways so I tried to focus the concept on them.

Anyways, I'm anxious to hear any comments and especially criticism! Is there anything you think I should have done differently? Be honest, I'm trying to learn here

By the way, I personally think this picture rocks just the way it is :-D

I love how the traffic lights turned out. The color is great on my LCD, hope it looks good on regular monitors too. I don't have a remote trigger so I used the timer set to 5 seconds. It was very difficult to time it just right when there was traffic going both ways. It was Sunday evening so there wasn't that much traffic anyway.

There was a lot of post work with the colors. No manipulation, this is how it looks like in real life. But the lamps on the highway have yellow lights and that really killed any white balance measuring in my camera. So I had to level out different sections to get it back to normal.
