The Death Of The Sodium Street Light

Gradually, our old,mellow yellow, sodium street lamps are being replaced by brand new, shiny white lights. This is probably a good thing, I suppose, but it is changing the way the town looks after the Sun goes down.
The street lights along the sea front cast quite a nice warm glow and this will be lost very soon.
This picture was taken with a 5 second shutter speed on a rather gloomy evening, no stars, no moon, just a warm yellow glow.
