Default Night shots
Hi there.

I am new at this, but I thought that I could get some pointers on setting up shots to get good trailing effects at night. Here are a couple of pictures i took a few nights ago.

Cheers,

kadralkhan

I would suggest that you use a tripod to keep your camera as steady as possible.
But good start though.

Kadralkhan , great pics. I too would suggest a tripod (personally I hate using them!). You are definately heading in the right direction. TFS.
