Street & City / My First Long exposure - city

« on: December 18, 2011, 11:55:44 AM »

This was an impromptu shot, just so happened to have my tripod with me.

5D Mark II 17/40 F/4 - 30 sec exposure, F/11 - I think I really could have gone longer with this exposure, but I didn't bring my release cable.  Also need to bust out the manual and find where mirror lock up is.  I was running short on time, didn't get to take as many pictures as I wanted.  We were in an unlit park, and a group on gang bangers had started to gather as we were taking pictures.

I also discovered that my tripod sucks, tried to get a long exposure of space needle with my 70-200 F/2.8 II - and my tripod would not stay still with the extra weight, and those pictures didn't turn out so good.

Anyways - I up for tips/tricks/suggests/critique - just trying to get to that next level.
