Great pic. I love night time shots.

I think it is, yes. If it isn't SXM, it sure looks a lot like it.

PS: best of luck getting your (very nice) picture (if you don't mind me saying) up on a.net mvtm

lawnboy, thank you for the pics. I had no idea where was the first one and thought that must be Portugal or the like. Second i thought it was american but wow. Never been to Croatia or Boston, i definitely would like to meet Boston, it's one of my list. People say it's very pretty but expensive.
