Default Seattle by Night!

Hello Everyone! Its been a while since I have posted something. Its coming up on finals for school but with a long weekend I got some free time. I drug my fiance downtown Seattle last night for some holiday decorations shootings. I also got to try some long shutter speed shots with the freeway. It took me a few tries but I got some shots that I am quite pleased with! I want to thank you guys for so much inspiration and making me want to try new things! Anywho, here are a few of my shots and I'll be uploading more to my flick shortly if anyone wants to check out the rest from last night. TFL!

These are great -- love that one of the arches with its wonderful space-alien mood! Thanks for sharing them.

Thank you! I was worried the color didnt come out well because the color wasnt showing well on the preview on the viewfinder was very blue. I was pleasantly surprised when I uploaded them!

Hi Ashley,
I absolutely love the arches! You did a fantastic job of these shots.I am new to Digital SLR photography so I am trying to learn as many techniques as possible. What setting did you use for the freeway?
All in all, VERY NICE!
Alan
