What a great expression
Love the 4th shotI find those covered bridges quite lovely
I think maybe you should have used longer shutter eg 20sec and put your ISO way down to 100 or 400. That way you get the dark sky, more warmth from the lights and some stars. Your White balance might also have influenced the result.
I haven't done many night shots myself, but most tutorials I've read go long exposure. They say up to 30sec if you want pinpoint stars. Any longer and you start to get trails. If there were NO stars, maybe blanket cloud cover) you could just go as long as you like.
It's a nice shot anyway. Maybe not quite what you were after but if you hadn't told us we'd never know and just think it's a good shot anyway![]()
Jeez yeah, it must be freezing out there at night ATM
That shot would be a good one to enter in the weekly assignment "blue" this week![]()
great eagle shots
