An aerial, night-time view captures a city scene in Almaty, Kazakhstan

An aerial, night-time view captures a city scene in Almaty, Kazakhstan. A wide, wet asphalt road with yellow lane dividers runs through the center of the frame, reflecting streetlights. Traffic, including cars, a truck, and a bus, moves along the road. On the left side of the road, a wide pedestrian walkway is lined with trees and grass. On the right side of the road, large residential buildings are illuminated from within, with visible windows. Distant city lights and buildings stretch across the horizon under a dark night sky. The scene is illuminated by streetlights and lights from the buildings, creating a high-contrast, atmospheric view of urban life at night.
