Just like that, but with just a little bit more contrast.

i'm not sure what happen there. I noticed it when I got home. it may have been either ice on the river or very still water that reflected.But what is that funny bright, too sharp for the water, reflection on the bottom right??? Did you take this photo through glass and is that a reflection on the glass?
I am not finding this when I right click. I work in IT so I am usually pretty good at finding informationChicagophotoshop: If you want to know about the exposure values with which the photo is taken (ie. ISO value, shutter speed, aperture, etc). You can right click on the original photo (for Windows), then choose "Properties", go to the "Summary" tab, then click "Advanced>>" There, you should see the EXIF data of the photo. Hope this helps. I have learned a lot from looking at the EXIF data when I started photography.
thanks for the positive feedback, I had the cam on a tripod. shutter was open for 5 seconds. thats all I really know for sure.Nice shot, it looks like you might have had a high iso (1600+ maybe) try using a lower iso and you'll end up with less noise. the downside is you'll need a longer exposure so may well require a tripod, keep up the good work.

The bright spots are a bit too colorful to be stars, and they're not noise either. They're hot pixels or dust. I would bet hot pixels due to the long exposure.
Look into your camera's modes & settings a bit. Most of them have a setting for noise reduction that can minimize this. Sometimes, all you have to do is set it for the idiot night mode.
Next time I'm going to come downtown to do some shooting, we should hook up. (or vice versa) I'll PM you my cell number.
thanks Jeremy for your input. I'm still learning about exposure and camera settings. by -1.0 exposure, do you mean the shutter open for 1 second?
Not necessarily. You could still use a 5s shutter speed, but you might have to decrease the ISO, use a higher aperture value, or both to bring the exposure down a bit.I can see what you mean by the picture being "over exposed. the shutter ws open for 5 seconds. which was simply, too long.
