Night Photography

Tue Jun 23, 2009, 10:03 AM




I don't know why, but for the past few months, I have really been into taking photos at night. I guess part of the reasoning has to do with the different qualities of light. Different street lamps, flood lights, patio lights, etc. all have different hues. With long exposures, I can take a picture of what looks like something in regular, "yellow" light and on camera, the light source looks blue or green or red. I think that's kind of awesome.

Plus, with night photos, I feel you can take photos of people, places, things that you might pass by every day and actually bring out depth that just isn't there in daylight (at least, in some respects). Everything is a little creepier at night.

That's my opinion, anyway. :)

Ignore the mood that's listed, btw, because the computer I am on is slow to load the emoticons and thus I cannot change it to something less dramatic ;)

  • Mood: Agony
  • Listening to: pandora.com - Stevie Wonder radio

Grumpy Face!

Time for an ID change.

I pretty much take pictures of whatever I happen to see in my life. I usually slow up in the wintertime and revitalize around April (I don't function well when it's bitter cold!). Up until December of 2008, I used my trusty Kodak z650; now I've got a Nikon D60 and am still getting used to it!

I pretty much just mess around until I get something I like. :) Your feedback and constructive criticism is welcome!
