Omaha Streets
The top and bottom light streaks are from a bus that moved thru the field of view during a three second exposure. The camera was one foot off the ground, because I wanted the light streaks to be above the camera's view.

f14, 3.2 sec, ISO 400, 55mm focal length.

  Camera one foot off the ground? does this mean you were out crawling around the the Omaha streets late at night? Whatever the reason this is an outstanding night shot. Expect to see this one again.
