- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
Shot a few pics tonight hoping to catch the meteor shower but ended up just being long exposures. These are my first true attempts at long night exposures. Two questions? First question is why are there random red and blue pixels? Is this camera, reflecting light, photographer error? I know I can edit them out but I'd like to prevent it in the future if I can. Second question refers to Pic 2. Its more exposed than I'd like over the mountains and I can only attribute this to three possibilities, two of which I have no control over so I'd appreciate opinions. It could be the summit light on the peak, the ambient light from a small town and large city not far off, or it could be that damn truck that drove by the camera shining lights before I could close the shutter. If its the first two then its probably not worth going back for a better shot, but if the truck is a likely culprit then I just may go back it clearer conditions. The truck literally drove past within 3 ft of the camera so light was increased for about 5 sec with headlights.
