About This is my first ever long-exposure shot.
This is Michigan Avenue in Chicago about 11 at night. It was shot at F22 for 8 seconds. Numerous cars and one bus drove by.

One surprise was how the lights turned out since I didn't use a starlight filter on the shot.

Wonderful shot, Mark. I love how sharp and crisp the Water Tower is.

I assume you were just north of the Tower and the building to the right (in the background) is the Park Hyatt?

For some reason, I always stopped just south of the tower. Fantastic sharp image of the water tower. Congratulations.

WOW! This brings back old memories.... Back in 1962 I hitchhiked to Chicago, just 17 and stayed in Pacific Garden Mission (homeless) before going into the Army in Feb 1963. I remember seeing this...

I've got to try some long exposure shots... Thsi is great...

Your New Friend, Peter

Thanks for the kind comment, Riny. Although I would like to think I have steady hands, 8 seconds would be a bit much for me on my best day. I had a tripod set up and had to guard it against getting bumped by the many people walking around. It was quite busy for 11 at night.

A stunning nightscape you have shot here! I love how the tower stands out. The star effect is from the aperature being stopped down, it is a natural effect.

This is one of your very best, Mark. Wire sharp and great color. Frame it and hang it on the wall! Well done! Larry

Great nightime composition of the Watertower Mark...The tower is crystal clear and I like the traffic zooming around the base

looks like you won't need much practice at the long exposure shots

A beautiful night shot, Mark! The exposure time worked perfectly for the moving lights and you've got great DOF and clarity. I believe the effect on the lights is because of the small aperture. Very well done!
Dave.
