LOVE that pic! I was trying to take a lot of these pictures in the club the other night, not using my flash and getting a sharp image... Only got one decent one out of the 40-50 I took..

Some very good art being made here in this thread lately. Glad to see that a lot of you guys have been actively participating in the FlickR theme group. The new theme is up and running. This week's theme is Long Exposures. Making water look silky or even light painting envolves some long exposure times. Here is one of my old shots that may help motivate.

Tripod is a must, use a remote or set a timer to avoid camera shake when you press the release. Use a small aperture. If you do it in daylight you might need an ND filter.

Do you have to use a tripod with those exposures?

2morrowbegins2day....Nice shots. I need to really learn how to fix my white balance better. I like my shots but I feel like I need to have it more on a blue hue. For some reason with this Canon, I am having a harder time fixing it but I am also not doing custom white balance as well. I need to find some sort of white thing to carry with me.
Yup. You can set your camera down a flat surface but for the most part and if you want to get a good angle, get a tripod. Past couple of days I have been carrying mine on my bag and as much as I look like that asian tourist, it has been totally worth it as long as I get my shots.

What brand is your tripod? I'm looking to get one but want to get a decent one that will last me a while.

I got a Manfrotto but the cheap one at Best Buy. Honestly I think it is one of the best bang for your bucks ($60). It's nice and compact, goes to about 5 feet tall, has a release plate so you don't always have to screw it on and off, pretty solid, holds pretty secure, pivots in all angles and fits nice on my Incase bag. When comparing to a professional one (my friend has a $300 one and that thing is solid as a rock and won't move at all), it is not nearly as good but for casual shooting, it's totally fine.

Thanks! From looking at your photo's from Fishermans Wharf did you use the tripod for those shots? May look into getting this tripod since I mainly wanted to take pics from twin peaks/treasure island at night.
