Shot last night at dusk with D7200. Hand held at ISO 400
I think if the distractive dots of bright lights were removed, the pictures would have been much better. On the first picture, leaving only the pole lamp, second in from the left, there and removing the rest. Other than that I like them.

Remember, your eye (mind) is attracted to bright or white in a scene.
Lights removed.
Am I doing anything wrong by editing others pictures to show what I am talking about?
Thanks for your comments.
Both are nice shots and I am in agreement with the gentleman that has suggested to crop those lights. The first shot to me is the best one and after cropping the lights it looks even better.
According to the rules and I am not a moderator of the forum, working on someone else image without consent is not allowed. This is a photography forum where critique, in my humble opinion, is very important to improve on our photography. I am quite sure the gentleman that posted these photographs learned something new that will improve his future night shots.
As far as we behave properly and with respect for the work of others the forum should continue to be what it is, one of the best photography forums where I have had the honor and privilege to serve.
Camerapapi,
Thank you for the answer, I should have read all of the rules, This is a great forum.
I am quite sure that the gentleman from Quebec that posted those two nice shots appreciates your advise and corrections made to the first shot. The lights you referred to act as a distraction.
Hi,
I took no offence by the advice nor the edited picture. In fact, constructive criticism is valuable and much appreciated. Thanks to all for taking the time to comment. Will keep the suggestions in mind in the future.
Fresh eyes often can see the image differently. But...permission to edit should be offered or issued to requesters per the rules.
