I had either forgotten or simply not realised how beautiful St James' Park is after dark - it's not somewhere I tend to go at night. But the other night I was going to some friends' apartment nearby and was early so I went for a stroll round to the park and couldn't resist taking a few pictures.

For your orientation, I am standing at the Horse Guards end looking along the lake towards Buckingham Palace in the distance. By the way, I haven't modified the colours in any way.

Very beautiful indeed :) anacb · 2009-01-04: 08:46

Awesome! betsymurphy · 2009-01-04: 12:47

Seeing this amazing picture just makes me cringe thinking of my crappy night shots and all the lost opportunities of taking great pics because of not having a better camera. Well, that's half of the problem. It doesn't replace the experience, talent and sensibility abounding in this pic. Fantastic colours. redro · 2009-01-04: 18:33
