First attempt at long exposures

Click for larger size!

I don't like how many street lights there are.

Could anyone help me with reducing lens flare also?

 

I think the lens flare is neat, but using a smaller number aperture should reduce the lens flare.

 

I was using f8, the smallest my crappy camera can go

 

hmm maybe someone else knows a different way to do it, thats just what i do. I usually just get hazy looking lights when i used low apertures. i like the flare you got in the picture though, there just might be too many of them like you said
