Title: Night and Low Light Photography: Comparing day and night shots Post by: picmaker1 on August 11, 2012, 02:59:43 PM This is the Eastside Water Treatment Plant in High Point, NC. I liked the transition from a day shot to a night shot, from a dirty unappealing unpleasant environment to just another place of work.
Day shot: manual focus, ISO 100, shutter speed 1/80, f/11 Night shot: manual focus, ISO 800,shutter speed 6 sec., f/22 Title: Re: Night and Low Light Photography: Comparing day and night shots Post by: John Mills on August 11, 2012, 07:21:48 PM I was surprised to see the smaller aperture setting you used in the night photo vs the daytime photo. It finally occurred to me that the smaller aperutre was used to produce the starbursts from the lights.
We always hear "simplify your subject." The use of night photography appears to be a great way to accomplish the simplification while the starbursts add interest. Comparison of the two photos is truly worth a thousand words. Thanks for sharing.

That is exactly why I did the aperture I chose. I liked the way the lights were captured.
