    May be a bit dumb question but was the flare deliberate?

    I couldn't crop that flare, or didn't have time to process this image.
    Is just a test, that's why I'm not spending time improving this image.
    It was the light from the highway, it was right on my right side.
    it was cold outside, and I just wanted to take 2-3 pictures and go home quickly and crank up the heaters

    Hey Lovin. I had a friend go down to Vancouver and she got some really great night shots from this revolving restaurant.

    Keep trying! My only advice is maybe watch your composition. There isn't really much too look at except for the Hwy. Maybe a bridge in it, or an intersection with a neat building.

    Keep up the good work! I can't wait to try some shots like these!

    Thanks Kat !

    I didn't want composition, I just wanted to try once the slow shutter to get those lights across the image.
    Next photos I'll pay attention to composition DoF etc etc

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!
