Wikipedia:Picture peer review/EMPACnight.jpg
Looking for some reviews on how these came out. This is my first nighttime pano effort and I'd like to know what I did right and what I did wrong for the three images. This is my first effort in using my camera in manual mode, and at night. Aperture set to around f5 for each image, exposure time set to 5 seconds. Any suggestions? Better combination? I'm still working on getting to know the impact of f-number and exposure length combination. Any comments would be helpful. Summer's coming and I want to be prepared to take quality images, not just get lucky. :-)

- As far as Wiki is concerned I'm not a big fan of night-time shots of this type of thing for EV reasons - you just can't see as much. Like I think your day time images of this place are far more informative (even though they had their own issues as commented on at the VPC nom). For example in these it's very hard to distinguish the top of the building, it's just too dark, and you totally lose any sense of the mirrored glass effect. They can have their place, but I generally prefer day-lit photos, especially at FPC. Diliff often does his for example more at twilight than at night. The photos themselves looks OK to me, but I'm no night shooting expert - of course there's issues with blown lights and that type of thing, which will nearly always be an issue. It comes up quite different in the pano to the one-shot, perhaps just due to less perspective distortion. Perhaps it would be worth specifically requesting some input from Diliff, I don't think he really looks at PPR, but if you asked him he may be willing to give some more thorough advice. --jjron (talk) 15:54, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
- Not sure why I never thought of doing it at twilight... duh. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 16:22, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
- You've probably already seen this but the Blue hour and Golden hour (photography) articles may provide a few tips --Muhammad(talk) 21:04, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
