Night lights .::HDR::.

I am SO SO SO TIRED.

I went to work today and then went to this meeting with some friends from the photography e-group that im also member of..

It was pretty cool because it was actually a meeting with some history students so their professor was telling the history of the places while we walked by.

Tried to pay attention, but i was actually more focused on taking pics. Oh well!

I waled a LOT and now i just need to rest!

 

Hope everyone had a wonderful thursday!

 

View On Black to enjoy the lights of the night!
