Hi all,
I know this photo is pretty naff but, its my first ever attempt at long exposures.
A key learning point for me is......... when its dark and raining then a) take an umbrella and b) take a torch so you can see what you're doing.
I also found the image was bright orange, presumably from the lighting.
Can any of you guys offer pearls of wisdom, tips and techniques you use for night time photography?
In this image i focused on the motorway sign and then switched to MF to maintain the focal point. I set up in Aperture priority and spot metering to get some rough settings to expose for the sign and then switched to Manual mode.
I think the exposure was around f16 at 15 seconds
Cheers
Alan
