This is the Rue de la Buffa in Nice. Whenever I look at this shot it seems as if one of the street lights has escaped – my take on Le Ballon Rouge (The Red Balloon) perhaps.
This is also my tribute to the people of Nice and their beautiful city.

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.

That moon….matching the street-lamps shape…just stunning!
Thank you, Anna.
I recognised Nice 🙂 It’s a romantic shot under moonlight. Thank you kindly for your entry, Tish. Have a nice Sunday!
Happy Sunday to you too, Paula.
Very tempting for a stroll!
Love it!
Thank you, Sue
Lovely night shot. Like something out of a dream.
I think it was a dream 🙂
I see the balloon, too, Tish. Beautiful shot.

…the one that got away…:)
What a lovely shot, Tish! A beautiful, fanciful capture!
Many thanks, Naomi.
What an atmospheric shot. And great timing, or Kismet or whatever.
My publisher has just put up a post for the cover reveal for my next book where some of the story takes place in Nice!
I shall take it as a good omen.
🙂
Brilliant news, Ark. Wishing you all the best with this 🙂
Thanks, Tish. I am told it will be out by Christmas. Liverpool went top of the league yesterday and my second book out soon. What better news to start a fresh week with! 😉
Am sending you a big HURRAH!
Night photography is truly a challenge. Nicely captured and composed.
Thank you, Sally.
You’ll be glad to know, I’m sure, Tish, that I’m always nice by night 🙂 🙂
Me too! But whether due to the wine or reduced visibility I’m not saying 🙂
brings back fond memories…
Fascinating!
Love the moon shining above, as if to show the street lights how it’s done. 🙂
