In Namur (Belgium), where I live, I think we are not allowed to publish night 
pictures of the citadel and of the bridges on the rivers nearby (all public 
space and the city landmarks) because the artist who designed the lighting 
claims he has a copyright on it. He won in court against a local photographer 
if I remember correctly.

Examples of copyrighted views would be: 
http://yvescaudano.be/galleries/showpicture.html?gallery=misc&pic=13 and 
http://yvescaudano.be/galleries/showpicture.html?gallery=misc&pic=14

I find very disturbing that it is not allowed to take pictures of the main 
cityscape at night.
