Default First try!

These are some shots I took at Clark Gardens Monday night with my G10 and no tripod. I had never tried night shots before so considering...I was pretty happy with them, but can't wait to try some more with my Mark II and a tripod! They are not sharp enough and too noisy to suit me!

They are very colourful and what's more important, the start of a new venture in your overall photography experience Judy. Can't wait to see episode 2. PAUL

Hi Judy,
Love the colors and detail in your lovely images. Really like your third image the most, just the way the blue lighting has turned out I think and seeing as you never used a tripod I think you did a great job. Well done and thank you for sharing them with us.
David.

Very nice! Unbelievable that you had no tripod; you've got a steady grip! I'm a shaky old man, so my tripod stays in the back of my car always.

Thanks, Neighbor! It also helps to have the 'shake control' feature on the camera!
