A wonderful shot, full of atmosphere. I can almost feel the rain.

Lighting and focus are working again this one.

Really like what you tried to do here. The top third of the image just seems too crowded, heavy or busy and the picture isn't balanced enough for me. It made me want to push it up to see more. Did you consider vertical?

You've captured a great mood in the tradition of many famous NY night-time shots...well done.

very cool setting but the framing might be narrower to increase the effect / impact of the photo

Just had to bump this from an 8 to a 9. It's so wet it's almost dripping off the monitor!

This is one really unique shot. You can almost feel the chill. "Here's looking at you, kid!" I hope this does well because it certainly out of the main stream of entries. BOL 8

This is very cool shot. Love the wet surfaces and the variety of textures as you are drawn into the shot.

This would be much better if the focus had been on the top of the railing on the right-hand side.

Looks very wet and uncomfortable there, and you were out taking photos in that weather. My hat off to you :)

This is an amazing photo. Well titled, and conveyed. Most of the image is either bright white or dark - and this works beautifully, as that is how it feels in windy rainy nights. Bravo!
