what you've done with that first shot. Looks like it could be a book cover photo. :hi:

There's a comforting suggestion of home and hearth, but also a sense of eeriness. You mentioned in another post about feeling your shots seem contrived. I simply don't agree. These are deeply expressive and evocative.

| 5. Thankyou, Jeff. I've passed these buildings many times |
|
and they have a character about them that is photogenic at just about any time of day.

| 9. I'd love to see them in daylight just for comparison's sake |
|
but I can't imagine they could be more compelling than in these night shots.

These are old Army buildings from earlier days. They are of the same type still common on military bases when I was a soldier; I joined when I was 17, so there are some emotions and such which are sparked when I see these old buildings.
Plus, there are some interesting aspects of color and texture against their immediate background, especially on an overcast day.
I'll be back out there in a few days, so I'll be sure to take some shots.
Happy New Years Eve, Jeff. :hi:

| 4. Thanks, Blue; I'm trying! Starting to realize the difference the size of light sensors makes. |

| 7. Isn't it true that you get those |
|
if you use a very small f/stop, like f/22 or something, and a longer exposure? I remember reading something about that in an Outdoor Photographer.

| 8. Tru be that; I was shooting with settings between f/5.6 and f/8 |
|

with different shutter speeds; a couple of the headlight/taillight shots were 15 second exposures.
Edit: f/8 is the smallest this camera does.
