Night Sunset
I want to encourage every amateur photographer to experiment and try new techniques. You have nothing to lose and you may just learn something, even from your mistakes, and once in a while you will get an image you are proud of. Don’t just stick with what you already know try something different.
This long exposure image was taken after sunset at a time that appeared to have little or no light in the sky. The photographer tried an experiment and came up with these interesting colors and cloud patterns in the sky. You will note the visible small squares in the upper left hand corner. These are what are called noise in digital camera; this is roughly comparable to grain in film. A digital camera builds up heat when opened for long periods of time and thus noise is a result in the image. There is computer software that will correct for this condition. The photographer has created an interesting experiment.
The image could use a stronger subject. The silhouette does not have a subject of much interest and the graphics are not particularly strong. I do like the cloud formation on the right and the light cast on the distant hill. I would suggest to the photo-artist that they continue working with long exposures and learn as much as you can by solving the technical issues and finding strong subjects to work with.
