I love the drama of this image from downtown Bangkok - a street procession in full swing with a young boy leading the way, accompanied by a ferocious looking dragon lighting up the night sky. I love the colours and the joy on the boys face. Excellent work.

A really nice portrait of a street performer posing as Charlie Chaplin. It's a great candid moment beautifully captured - the scene is illuminated by a single street light. The image has a really nice tonal range with lots of details. Great work.

Something a bit different - a night time landscape illuminated by hundreds of pink glowing flora - the trees are red and white against the night sky. It looks like a martian landscape in a futuristic world - great work!

**This contest is open to photographers ranked 1001+ in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** How to capture the expectation, the fun, the clamour and the chaos of nightlife. What we do after dark, in pubs, bars and clubs, in theatres and restaurants, on the street, in taxis and buses. Intrepid photographers who get in the face of this enjoyment, often getting carried along with it as well, document this expression of the human need to socialise, let go, and reward ourselves for our daily efforts.

A really great band shot capturing all the excitement of a live gig. The close up image makes us feel as we're right there in the action - I love the crowd's reaction caught in that small moment. The unusual angle also adds drama to this shot - great work!
