Hello everyone and Happy New Year! I recently shot some photos at the First Night Raleigh event and encountered a common problem: very bright flood lights in the middle of a relatively dark scene. I was trying to get some shots of the moving light using exposures ranging anywhere from 4 to 15 seconds, but couldn't seem to come up with a setting that worked. Obviously one fix is to frame the shot so that the bright lights aren't in it and I got a few that I was happy with (see second photo). However, are there any techniques that folks could suggest that might work? I've attached a wide angle shot so you can see the whole scene.
Thanks in advance,
Josh
