My first night shots

[Shipman]

I was never really interested in shooting at night because I could never really get any good shots, so I made it my mission to work on that lately. I am not where I want to be but I feel like Im going in the right direction. Any help or criticism would be greatly appreciated.

I really like the first two. 3 is a little dark overall. I'd expose 4 longer so the water will be smoother.

I'm going to Philly next weekend, I hope to get some good shots like yours!

Technical execution is pretty good. Now work on compositions.

Thank you and I agree about number 3. Number 3 is edited differently and Im not sure I like it, but like I said, I was just trying things out to figure out what I like. If you want to hit philly together Id be up for that.

Thank you, thats exactly what I need to perfect. Its just hard to find subjects near me that Im interested in shooting at night, so it makes practice pretty difficult.
