Night Shooting

Was doing some night shooting in downtown Montgomery, AL. This is part of a 1800s fountain that is on the street that the capitol is on.

question, did you use the in camera flash or an attachment flash to capture this photo?

 

[Don Kuykendall_RIP]

No flash. Just the lights that are on the fountain

Did not really like the full shot very much. But shooting just the bird part I really liked.
