Excellent night capture, terrfic in B/W brings out the tones and textures in the foreground and as well as the reflections on the water.

That is so cool!
Love how the reflection of the lights looks like it’s on just the sand – no water involved!
Makes me think of a very Early James Bond movie! lol
