Fantasy
These are all composite shots of scenes that could not exist in real life: the visible Milky Way in a light polluted sky or in a different direction. I've tried, wherever possible to place astronomical objects as close to where they would be if they were visible with some exceptions that I'll note in each individual picture.

Milky Way with traffic light trace.
Milky Way in Downtown LA with the Harbor Freeway traffic light trace. The last time I shot a traffic trace in DTLA, I tried to capture this in real life(it didn’t work). The foreground was shot on the 3rd Street overpass over the 110 freeway. There a pretty good traffic trace and I’ve lightened the shadows so you can see the red in the bougainvillea at the right. Again, the Milky Way is move vertical in this shot to account for the more southerly direction of the foreground shot.
