Here is the Virginia Beach Oceanfront at 2am. :) From my trip to Oceana in 2007. I went out at 2am because all the rowdy people were dying down and it was less likely to get mugged.  <laughing>

Took this with my first digital... a 2.1mp Fuji P&S.  <laughing> Had that thing for like 3 years before deciding I needed something else.


I like how this driving shot turned out though. I think it screams California for anyone not from here.  8)

I'd like to know what is needed to take night shots. Last week it was nice and cold, the sky was very clear and the all the mountains were visible thanks to a very bright moon (it was at about 2:30am). What settings are needed to take night shots?

A few sunsets taken over the year in different seasons.

It's all about getting out there and trying different stuff.  A lot of it depends on what city conditions you have, moon light, there are to many factors to list?  Just get a tripod and go from there.  Sometimes I use aperture setting, other times i use speed settings.  You can mess with the iso settings too.

Robert unknowingly walked through the frame in this shot; thought it created a neat little effect.
