These aren't great but I like them. These are my first every city night shots and I think they didn't turn oput too bad considering. I know the best time is the 10-15mins just as it grets dark giving a dark blue sky but I was having dinner with the GF. Plus I was backpacking so the tripod was a very lightweight basic one which is impossible to get level.

All shot with Nikon D70, kit lens. Aperture around F16-22. Exposure 15-30s, ISO 200.

A random building near the Pantheon (because of the cafe table in the way it was taken at an angle and had to get starightened afterwards, hence some perspective distortion:

Trevi Fountain. Horribly busy at night time and impossible to get a good position. Took an hour to get these next 2 photos because people kept walking in front etc.

I have some prague photos by night that look quite nice. Post those another time
 
Yeah, they are all orange, but they were orange in real life. I did very little to adjust the photos, just bumped the contrasts, sharpened and straightened.

I'll play around with the WB, a slight correction should help but I'm not a fan of heavy photoshopping.
