St. Mark's at Night

Here is another Venice photo for your enjoyment. The amazing thing about this photo is that the sky was that blue in camera, in other words I did not photo shop that color in. I don't know why it is that blue because I took this close to midnight. My best guess is that the yellow of the artificial lights mixed with the dark of the sky and it became blue somehow. I am not complaining because it is much more dramatic this way. Another funny fact is that I did not have a tripod so I just placed the camera on the ground. You just gotta improvise sometimes. The guy right in front of me is setting up his tripod, I wonder who got the better photo that night...
