cardiff bay at night

went for a trip to the bay for a few pics last night, turned out to be quite productive, there was loads of shots to be had, i'll have to return another day to finished them.

10secs f14 14mm iso 200


bit of an odd one: 2.5 secs f11 120mm iso 200


st davids hotel: 10secs f14 10mm iso 200 rotated and cropped a pinch


one day i'll have a flat with a boat out the front: 20secs f18 20mm iso 200


got a little over sat in SFW (didnt fix it, oops) but i quite like it for this type of shot

I like the first one best. Its great.
I like night shots, but I always feel a bit apprehensive being in dark places with my camera. Have taken a few in Bradford at night, but its harder to do than it looks.

was just putting the focal length on there, its something i sometimes woder about other peoples pics so thought id put it on mine in case other people are wondering the same

as for the dark places issue, i went with a friend so it was no problem, i could see how you might get nervous on your own.

shiato.... yeah might have done, i got lazy

Great shots there noah!

Some seem a little off vertical i.e. #2 which is everso slightly distracting. They are worth getting correct IMO.

Good night shots, particularly like the bridge and the hotel (shot 3).

Thanks for sharing

I like these very much, particularly the last one. If it is local return and take a shot with some light still in the sky. That would nail it !!

First is the best of the lot in my opinion, nice perspective there

It is a tough old world out there, and it can be risky taking night shots in quiet places on your own. If you do end up on your own, what i'd do (and i do do) is take the center column out, it would come in handy if things got a bit iffy on your own. Shame you have to think that way i know

Wow ... don't know quite how I missed these to date but they are a really great suite of phtographs Noah !

Well exposed, contrasty, great composition and with beautiful colours ... not a lot to pick holes in even if I wanted ...

I Like a lot ! TFS ...
