Finally I have a Website Up and Running! www.shirleybrigdenphotography.com

DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN TAKE A PICTURE IN THE DARK, YES REALLY DARK?

While I was uploading I came across this picture above from my trip in 2007 to Utah. This picture is not spectacular, however, you wouldn't know it, but it was taken in the dark. The sun had fully set about a half hour earlier and to the human eye there was no colour, just dark shapes. I set up my tripod and camera and set a long exposure because I knew.......although the human eye can't see colour below a certain light level....the camera can, its amazing! This was the result.  Try it sometime, you too will be amazed.  You should have a tripod, but you could also try resting the camera on something solid like the roof of the car, or a fence post or you will have blur in your photo...shirley
