Exercise - Outdoors at night

As I don't live in a city nor near the city centre anymore, this exercise had to be skipped and completed at a later stage when chance permitted. These photos below were taken in Central London at twilight under cloudy sky

1. floodlit buildings
The photos were taken along the river Thames. The sky was not completely black but it was quite cloudy and it got darker fairly quickly!
Shooting: Using tripod I set the camera on AV mode setting aperture at about 13

Post processing:
Using PS3 to adjust exposure and lighting from RAW file






2.Brightly-lit store-front
Shooting: Setting camera on P mode because I wanted it to be quick.

3.Large interior with many people

I am not too comfortable of taking photos in a department store so I chose underground and train station instead.
I am using the same camera setting and post processing as above.

Inside train station:


4.raised view looking along a busy road
I have chosen to have one photo with raised view looking down onto a street from a bridge and two other photos from the same level as camera only because streaks of traffic headlights and taillight are the same.

The photo below was taken with a London bus running pass and therefore the headlights and taillights of traffic are covering across the photo.




I do like taking photo at night and in the winter i don't have to stay up late to take ones but it's much colder!!
