Color Photo of Lamppost and Trees at Dusk, New York, by James Maher Photography

I set my tripod and camera here and waited and waited for the light of the lamppost to turn on. 

There often seems to be no rhyme or reason to when the lampposts turn on, as half of the lampposts were lit for about an hour before this one finally turned on.

In the end I waited for over an hour in the freezing cold and my hands were basically numb by the time I took this shot.  But I think it was worth it.
