I don't like how grainy this is but other than that I'm proud of it

Not too shabby at all

however, you have put the horizon almost dead centre and I think I would have liked to see more of the light trail and a little less sky.

Why's it grainy though? Should be shooting about ISO 100 with a tripod?

Nice work Michael, wonder why its so grainy as I see you shot at ISO100

 

[m_hancox]

I'm totally sure why it's that grainy. I hate to blame my tools but my camera is only 3.3 mp and isn't the best

Not to shabby Mike, but then I would expect anything less I mean if I cannot help you get a decent light trails I'd be pretty rubbish just think what you will be able to do once your shooting with decent camera you will be out shining Darrell and me :bonk:

That camera is woeful at handling long exposures

Haha, thanks Matt. I've still got my photos from Darrells camera on a memory card that need to be uploaded actually but I am really looking forward to getting a decent camera

Im going to have to ask, where do you see that it was shot at iso 100?

That noise is on another level.
Nice capture, something I'd like to try sometime.

Hope you don't mind.

It is that camera mate, It really doesnt like low light situations, sound daft but it handles noise better at iso 200 than 100 (No idea why), and from what i remember F6 was about the sharpest point aswell
