Night Photography

**Done_Fishin** · 08-19-2009, 12:19 PM

I love night photography .. as you might notice as you begin to see my main collection of Photo's.

The totally accidental capture of the couple in a "normally" extremely busy & popular area near the acropolis just adds to the atmosphere of the missing customers ..

The fading people maes me think of ghosts. What was the exposure time?

What do you use for a camera? I'm trying to figure out what is the best DSLR I can go with for the money. I don't want to spend a ton of money but i want a high enough quality camera that it will last me for a few years.

I have a Nikon Coolpix E4300 digital which I have had since 2003 .. I would love to own a DSLR too, but we have been in an economic crisis ever since I got married back in 1980

I don't ever remember having money ..

A Rusty BBQ!

(Canon 5D MkII + 28~300mm 'L' image stabilised)
150mm -176 seconds at f/13 (ISO 640)

The horizontal illumination at the top is from a distant street light. I suffer from light pollution. No where in our back garden is absolutely dark!

The BBQ was 'painted' with light from a small LED torch - I kept walking left to right and back again, making sure that the subject was well painted and no light from the torch was pointed to the camera....
