Went out last night to take some pics
Not car pics, just night pictures of a town by me. The moon was full and I LOVE shooting at night. Might go out again tonight too. These are all super long exposures, shot only by ambient light, some streetlight, some moonlight. Tripods are wonderful  Let me know what you think!

some of those shots were really nice. it showed a quiet, peaceful winter town asleep to me. the light off the moon was amazing last night! definitely a great idea to go shooting.

Thanks! I use a canon 20D with either 18-55 kit lens or 70-200 zoom. All the exposures were around 25 seconds long so I could keep the ISO and noise down. Only hard part was having the patience to retake pictures that a car drove in front of.
They are also all edited for color balance and saturation.
Thanks for the kind words

NICE SHOTS. I always wondered who owned or what was in the long building/ garage in Hope. You shot a couple of pics of it. Be nice if it was for sale.
