Jay - It was not at all cloudy - clear sky with starts shining!

Jatin - The light I am guessing is getting reflected off Manas resort or Igatpuri outer since that's were the sodium vapor lights were gleaming.

Dinesh - It is...

Wow, Awesome snap. Was it cloudy? If yes, then the light might be from the nearby town reflected from the clouds. Especially considering the color temperature of the light seems to match the sodium vapor lamps.

I guess, light on bridge is coming from a nearby Petrol Pump.

Good lights in the pic. Sharpness takes a beating due to aperture f1.8. Good noise control due to ISO 200. Overall good attempt to capture a difficult and tricky picture.

How come the viaduct is so brightly illuminated? Were there some floodlights on at Manas Resort or nearby areas?
