Looking for night shots of major cities with snow (for wallpaper)

I'm on an epic quest for a new desktop background for the winter months.

I for the life of me cannot find a good shot of a major city at night where there is a lot of snow on the ground and/or snow falling. Dusk or night shots would be perfect. I don't know why, but these kinds of pictures really give me the warm fuzzies all over and I swear it cheers me up just looking at dark, quiet calm snow covered urban landscapes.

Help anyone?

Thanks,
Anthony

and more

in general, if you flex google's muscles for winter pics of Russian cities, particularly Moscow and St.Petersburg, you will find plenty... the question may be if these are the cities youare looking for or not

you may also want to look for Canadian cities
