      i really like this one, did you use a tripod?.

    3. yewenyi (79 months ago | reply)

      No tripod. I think I had it on 1600 ISO and manually down one stop, but i have to go now and cannot look at the settings. Thanks.

      yeh I like the line of lights too! It adds an 'arty' feel to the photo.

      This is the tower where the murder of Olympic Tourists just happened a couple of days ago.The murderer jumped to his death after killing them with a knife. It is a substantial building. When you were there, did you hear any drumming or is that just long ago to tell the time.

      I did not hear any drumming from this tower, only from the one in beijing.

      bang the drum
