this was my first night shot. i actually didn't know what i was doing so this was somehow a lucky shot for me

this is actually the roof of a building. the light behind the bars is actually the moon

this is Roxas Blvd shot from a restaurant near Quirino Grandstand

These are great Vernes.

I'd like to try a panorama one of these days using this subject.

Sure did it right the first time, awesome shots Vernes, very crisp and vibrant. Inspiring as well.

Wish I had access to a high building; I'm thinking of shooting from the highest level of Shangri-la mall soon, should come up with something cool too, hehe.

Nice photos:) What settings did you use? How many seconds? I would love to prowl the night one day and just take some awesome shots that can not be done during the day. Thanks for inspiring us.:)

thank you sir for appreciating them :) i usually use iso200 f/8. shutter speed will depend on the exposure that i want. i play around with the white balance settings to get different color effects:)

please check my night shots gallery at http://www.pbase.com/dni/night_shots for the detailed settings :) hehe may plugging pa :)

thanks again
