This year's PL fireworks display was great! Even though I was watching with my family on a hillside park several kilometers away, the display was very beautiful and we didn't have to deal with any of the crowds!

Cityscape Osaka
Winter is a great time to photography a city at night. As many people are still in the office towers, they are brightly lit from the inside. A tripod is essential for long exposure shots.

Xitang (night), Zhejiang, China
After dusk Xitang transforms from a bustling tourism centre to a bustling entertainment district.
It does still retain the old market town atmosphere, augmented with electric lights.
Many of the restaurants become night clubs, complete with video screens, live music and light effects.
The water taxis transport guests from point to point along the canals late into the night.
Free photography tip: if you're taking photos at night and want longer exposure times but forgot your tripod; put the camera on something (bridge post, bench, some random motorcycle) and use the timer to take the picture. Putting the camera down will eliminate motion blur from holding the camera in your hands. Using the timer will isolate the camera from the shock of pressing the shutter button, this becomes an issue when taking shots at night that include light sources.
