Now that it gets dark early it's time to dust off the tripods for some long exposure city night shooting

Details:

What: Long Exposure

Where: Lettieri SE corner Queen and Spadina
http://www.lettiericafe.com/locations_queen.htm


If you are new to night shooting long exposures I will pass on a few tips to get you started.

For those that need pointers please come with the knowledge of how to set ISO, aperture and exposure in manual mode (read your manual) . I will explain how to choose what settings to use for what reasons.

If you have a dark piece of fabric or a black glove or mitt bring it along for extra credit.


Warning we will be close to traffic so be aware and read this thread http://tpmg.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13707

See additional notes for those that would like pointers.

I imagine we will be done by around 9, time for a beer or hot chocolate. It looks like there are enough people to do a separate late night event. Depending on the weather I will have another one different time and place in a week or 3.

OOh~~~after only 3 hours of sleep for the last two nights, something's not quite right with my head now. I'll have to pass this time and wait for the next one. Have fun, Everyone.
