Default Beginner Night Shot
I have always wanted to pick up photography as a hobby. Recently i was so intrigued by some low light night photos that i finally ordered a digital SLR. The camera came in last week and this is one of my favorite shots that i captured and slightly retouched. Please let me know what you think, any suggestions or comments are more than welcome! Thanks!

What a fabulous shot! Great perspective, & I love the contrast between the darkness and the silver car. The starry streetlights are wonderful, and I love how they've illuminated the colors of the grass and trees. Great depth of field too. Awesome photo! Welcome to DPS, we can't wait to see your next photos.
