I have been too busy this week/weekend with babysitting so will try and catch up over the week.

Any suggestions for this week coming?

Lester I like the 2nd street shot, the shadowplay further down the street is ace. Mary the door shot is straight outta a horror movie for me.

I could use one more week for night shots too! That or I'll just try to do two assignments this week.

And what sort of settings are you using to get the night shots? Are you primarily messing with the length of the exposure or are you messing with the aperture or some combination of both?

Looking at a few of my night/dark room shots it appears that I'm messing more with the exposure (1-2 seconds) and letting the camera do whatever it wants with the aperture, with my ISO set to 400 (max for my camera).

Mine goes up to 3200 ISO, so I stuck it there and just fiddled with settings until it deigned to take a picture for me.

In fairness this probably had a lot to do with taking it while balancing precariously on the sink in the dark. I suspect these things don't happen to my dad.

Since both my cameras are not happy with me, I will also cheat and use an old photo:

Mine was ISO 400/f1.8/1 second. Tripod would have been nice.

I did mine ISO400, camera on a tripod and set to bulb mode. I used a remote trigger to keep from jarring the camera and just counted till it felt right.

what shall we do next week?

I was thinking something like 'workplaces', so you can fiddle with the camera however you like, it's more of a subject piece?

I swear I'll take night pictures tonight. Really.

Workplaces could be fun - I'd love to see what everyone stares at all day. (And it would be a chance to show off my awesome job Razz)
