Night Shots from my window...

[lostcase_gib]

Shots taken at about 1am from my window, played with levels a bit but not too much as im too tired... what do u think???

first one looks good. 2nd one looks like you set your iso way to high as it has alot of noise

I like the first one and i think the second one has a good idea behind it, but like stated previously has a high noise issue

 

[lostcase_gib]

ill drop the levels a bit on the second then as i did it with an iso of 100.

A bit of NeatImage might help and NOT render Photo 2 too soft, either (I tried for you, lostcase, wanna see?). I felt like trying since I like the second photo quite a bit, given it's only that tree lit up from some street light, and the starry sky. Nice idea.

I second NeatImage. And its free too, so you can't go wrong. You can also see a tiny part of the crane in the 2nd photo.

I would love to see what you did with it plz.

I will also post the original photo too when i get home.

I did nothing other than run it through the Demo Version of NeatImage which you can download for free at www.neatimage.com - look:

Of course there's going to be noise, they're long exposures.

They're good attempts, but next time, try for even LONGER exposures, like 20 minutes.

 

[lostcase_gib]

my camera can only go to a 15sec exposure... doesnt have bulb or longer exposures...
