| | | | I think in general #1 through #3 are pretty well exposed, though the compos and subjects don't really intrigue me much.
I would like to see a bit longer exposure on #4, with perhaps a bit of supplemental lighting on the bush in the background.
#5 & #6 don't get it done for me; I can't tell what I'm looking at in #5 and it's not compelling enough to work as an abstract, in my opinion. #6 is also a bit shadowy, and I would like to have seen the white balance corrected for the green mercury vapor cast.
All that said...I suspect these were simply night test photos, that you weren't necessarily trying to create great art in particular here. From that perspective, these are pretty decent first efforts. The thing about night photography is, there's no substitute for experience through trial-and-error. Keep it up and you'll be nailing them in no time!

| | | | Yeah, the biggest issue i am having right now is white balance. I have been doing a lot of trial and even more error just trying to learn. Thanks for the input!

| | | | Your long exposure shots are going to be affected by two things that I see you doing.
1) Having people in exposure shots is always difficult, as it's generally impossible to stay still long enough.
2) Having light sources in the shots can really mess up an exposure shot. For instance, the last one, I doubt you could get a much longer exposure out of that because of the lights. You can try choosing other subjects where the lights won't be visible, but if there are shots with lights visible you will be a bit limited. The trolley shot did work out great though.
