The night sky of Kolkata where I live seems to me unusually inky black. Numerous heritage buildings and spots that dot the city takes on dream like quality against this back drop. But my iPhone with which I take all my photographs has limited night capabilities.
However, recently I clicked some and was surprised to see the result:
The British lion still keeping a vigil at Victoria Memorial. See below:
@C_T thank you very much for your kind words. I used the built in iPhone camera. The first photograph was from my slow moving car. I was surprised to see that no blurring had taken place.
Thanks for reading my post about night photography tips! I’m glad that you will challenge yourself to take photos at night.
Your camera is quite new model, as far as I know, but it seems that the camera settings are not that good for night photography. Did you try to find a manual online? The information that I found is that the shutter speed could be set to 3 seconds in the Night (Tripod) mode and according to me that could not get you the best result when taking photos at night. So, probably you can take a friend’s camera and try with both to check out which camera is taking better shots.
Good luck and don’t forget to share with us the results!
