Title: Weekly Assignment: Experimenting with the Motion of City Lights Post by: PWS-Staff on April 13, 2011, 09:57:16 AM Although many people put their cameras away after the sun has set, it's fun to go out prowling through the night looking for colorful shots of night lights. There are a lot of ways to shoot a city at night, but perhaps one of the most fun techniques is to use a long exposure time or jiggle or swirl the camera around during the exposure. One of the great things about shooting pictures like this is that you don't have to lug a tripod around because you're not trying to keep the camera steady. Also, because you aren't trying to capture short exposures, you can leave the ISO at a relatively low speed, such as ISO 100 or 200.
