Amazing what you can do with a large aperture. Always good to have in the arsenal.
Good shot
What was your shutter speed?

The great thing about the shot is the lighting is just as it was with the naked eye.

I'll be happy whenever I can scrape up the funds for a DSLR. My Kodak only gets up to a 2.8. I've gotten lucky a time or two with it in dark shots, but not enough to suit me. Nice shots.

What was the ISO?
Auto or custom white balance?

Looks nice.

Looks nice.
Auto white balance / ISO 320
WOW I was in manual and didn't realize the ISO was so low until now when I just checked.

That's very impressive! I can believe you got such crisp clarity in the near darkness. Gotta get me one of those!
