For this type of image, you'll need to steady your camera on something and release the shutter by setting your timer.  Be creative but to create an image like the one above, you want your subject (here, the man leaning on the pole) to be very still, and something behind them will be moving fast.  Again, use a slow shutter speed (1/8, 1/4, or 1/2) Point and Shoot camera users can use night portrait, night, firewords, landscape, or maybe sunset.
