New Orleans Trolly

This is a more recent picture taken in New Orleans February 6, 2017 with my relatively new Nikon D7200 and Nikon 35mm G f/1.8 lens (1/60, f1.8, ISO4000). It was obviously taken in the dark of night. Pretty happy with this picture. I like the contrast of the color with the dark. I also like the way the tracks lead you into the main subject of the trolley. The trolley appears to be driverless, which I found interesting. The biggest challenge with this photo is that I had a major lens flare that showed up in the dark area of the tracks and significantly detracted from the picture. I was able to mostly eliminate it via Lightroom but it was a pain to do so. Not sure if the flare was from the lens or the B&W UV filter on the lens. I'm tempted to try to use the lens at night without the filter to see if it makes a difference. Great low light lens that I plan to use often at night so figuring out how to eliminate the flaring issue is important.
