That needs serious light handling capability to keep the speed up for no camera blur or clever Optical Lens Stabilisation as well. What camera? Excellent shot BTW! But ordinary cameras can't take that shot!!

Great shot. I'm picking it's been taken with a DSLR rather than a P&S. I'd be interested in some technical details (exposure F-stop, focal length, time of night).
