Hi Josh, welcome to the assignment. To be honest, I would say first of all that the frame overwhelms your image which unfortunately does not have a lot of substance. My eye wanders around the scattered sources of light seeking something to latch onto without success.
Don't give up because of my opinion. Check out the other uploads from week to week in order to gain experience and ideas.
Hi Josh, welcome to W/A and FM as well. First off, I must say that I do like the lighting of the night scene. I do, however, agree with Bill. If your goal is an isolated subject within the image, the viewer should be able to determine that subject without reading the title. In this shot I am drawn to the bridge/raised roadway in the lower left. But, I had trouble finding the turn sign. I am no master and am still learning as well, a good photographer never stops. Keep at it, nice first attempt.
