Night Photography

M25 B&W

Smashing today produced a nice post with 60 examples of really good night time photography, a couple of weeks ago I did a little experiment of my own.

My recent investment, I mean bankruptcy, sorry investment into a new DSLR body has got me experimenting again.

Heres how I took that shot:

- Wide angle lens, set the focus to infinity
- Set white balance to shade
- Aperture f11 or higher (you can play with this, you’re aiming for a fuller focus)
- Balance the shutter speed
- Use a tripod
- Set ISO to 100 (don’t worry…no bluring if you’re using a tripod)

I know the M4 off the Ford Bridge isn’t exactly the highway’s of Tokyo but like I said, just me playing.
