Nightime Photography

I decided to investigate some of the functions on my little Ixus camera. I usually only do point and shoot with it as I do more serious stuff with my professional camera. Anyway I thought I'd try some experimental nighttime photography with it and found a 'fireworks' setting (I don't have a user manual for the Ixus. To take this shot I selected a brightly lit shop between two darker ones pressed the shutter and rotated the camera. It's a bit hit and miss as I wasn't sure how long the shutter would remain open. Anyway, I got this image which I quite like.
