Picture This! MeetUp Photo Shoot < click



We had a good photo shoot Saturday night along the Seawall on the Portsmouth side of the Elizabeth River. The photo above is one of the first I downloaded. More to follow. Rain was predicted, but held off long enough for us to get in an hour's worth of shooting. The Norfolk skyline is illuminated from Thanksgiving to New Years' Day and provides fodder for many different camera settings. I found a setting of 20 > 30 sec. @ f22 and an iso of 100 yeilded some pretty good images. This scene has no light in the sky or the foreground, so it's kind of tricky. Experimentation is a must and I have a whole month to go back and get that perfect picture.
