My first attempt with my new camera at nighttime shots. Hubby suggested that I try night shots as we were in London, so hubby took the tripod with him to work so I didn't have to carry round all day while I was taking shots of Shaun the sheep..... Met him after work went for a delicious meal at Zizzis.
Hope @Taffy doesn't mind but I wanted the feedback recorded in my album too.
@bizziebeeme You've done a wonderful job for capturing the lighting in the city and the light trails, without any blown out spots at all. Congrats!! That's really hard to do. I see two potential focal points that bring interest to the night shot -- the light trails and the Ferris wheel. I wonder for composition's sake, if you cropped in from the right and down from the top if you could anchor a composition to focus on those two elements. I'd try the crop at the space between the purple lights, about 3 lights in to see if you can maintain proportion, and if not, maybe try a square. Technically, I think you're spot on, including the reflected light from the light trails. Worth fiddling with, I think.
