This nighttime image captures a section of a canal or river in Strasbourg, France. The dark, still water occupies the central and lower portions of the frame, serving as a reflective surface for the surrounding artificial lights. On the left bank, a tree-lined promenade extends into the distance. Multiple warm-toned streetlights illuminate this walkway, casting distinct reflections on the water. Several indistinct human figures are visible on the promenade, appearing to walk or stand. Further down, a brightly lit, possibly moored boat or floating structure is discernible near the bank. A stone embankment separates the walkway from the water. The right bank features a street or quay lined with multi-story buildings displaying traditional European architecture. Bright, white-toned streetlights illuminate this side, generating prominent reflections on the water and a noticeable lens flare from one intense light source. In the background, spanning the waterway, a multi-arched bridge is visible, illuminated from below. Additional city lights extend beyond the bridge, indicating a continuation of urban development. The sky above is dark and unfeatured.
