Anyone who remember Snoopy from the comic Peanuts
– sitting at the typewriter on the roof of his doghouse.
“It was a dark and stormy night“
Actually it was a little bit rainy but not stormy in the streets of Strasbourg.
“What hath night to do with sleep.?”
*John Milton (1608-74) – english poet, polemicist, man of letters*
(and a civil servant for the Commonwealth of England under Oliver Cromwell)

Great night shots, Drake. For myself as I get older, the night has a lot to do with sleep. 🙂

I really enjoy cities by night, the lights so fascinating… 🙂
Reverse of your “dark and stormy night” – a Peanuts poster I saw on the wall of a friend’s office:- Little boy sitting on a log in sunshine with his dog. He says – “What a beautiful day – what a perfect day -I’m just waiting for someone to come along and muck it all up!”
A piece of philosophy which has haunted me ever since!
Like your rain-washed urban scenes. Des.
