Night Photo Practice

Night time at the trolley station.

Wow! That's a practise shot?! It's FANTASTIC!
The clarity and details are just superb!
You did a great job CF.
What lens and settings did you use?

Hi Alison:

Thanks very much for your comment. I really appreciate it. I spent most of my day yesterday practicing. We have quite unusual weather here at the moment but makes for good photography. The post Water Over The Dam was from yesterday also.

The night shot was taken with a Canon 18-55, settings were 0.5 shutter speed/4.5 aperature @ ISO 200.

I have another from last night that I will post a bit later.

Thanks again.

If you call this a practice shot then I am sure the perfect one will be more spectacular. Post it when you've done one or even a few. This one is already a great shot.

Thanks very much for the kind words. Very nice of you. I am just posting a few more now from my outing last night. Hope you like them. Thanks, again!

This is my favorite of the series! You have a nice composition of line and color balance with the track. The light from beneath against the contrast of the black sky gives this image good weight with it being well rooted producing a solid photograph.

I would like to see the station a little more displaced from the approx. center of the image. It isn't bad, just could be a stronger image if slightly recomposed. Even a little more dark sky at the upper left. The edge of thw walk/curb at the bottom vanishes into the frame at a slightly awkward angle and location and could be cropped or modified.

Good photograph ! Sign it, frame it, and hang it proudly!

that looks like the trolley in san diego near fashion valley

ube: Yes, the SD Trolley. This is the Grantville Station.

drg: Thanks very much for the comments. I will take a look at this given your thoughts. I live close enough to the station that I can re-shoot no problem.

Thanks again.
