Fabulous Diana, love the light just catching the parked cars. The market lights so inviting, brilliant!

Super work Diana, great contrast between the dark foreground and the bright market and square. I really like the old streetlight too.

Excellent work Diana, really good darks showing up the light and I can almost feel the rain.

Such an atmospheric painting. I love all the reflections from the rain, and the light and dark. Beautiful X

Fabulous reflections without being 'forced' if that makes sense. Great painting.
