I have recently realised i am awful at taking pictures on my 450D at night. I went for a walk along the cliffs at night to get some shots of the lights over Bondi beach.
After faffing around for ages to get the exposure time/apature right the images came out with a lot of blur/star effects from the lights, is there any way of stopping this? i was using my 50mm 1.8.
Also its 'sculptures' by the sea at the moment and i tried to get some picures of these at night also but i couldnt get the hang of focussing at night, the auto focus just roamed like mad and i resulted in trying to guess the focus as it was really dark, is there a technique? am i doing it wrong
thanks
dude
