Soo glad it's starting to get darker earlier- means I can go out for a few hours of night shooting and be in bed at a half-decent time.
All my pics link to their page on Flickr if you fancy more info/ a closer look.
Not strictly night/ dark dependent this one but was a fun way to spend an evening.
Anyone else shoot at night a lot? Let's see your shots and hear your tips and techniques.

Dean - such vivid colours, like the result. Have you removed your light source from your shot or was it shielded. If neither and it was out of frame it must be 'kin powerful. Me likey
Ravell - good first efforts. If you go out in the next couple of nights and take that exact same shot I'd expect you to find a completely different result; assuming no cloud cover, the sky really comes to the shot a couple of days either side of a full moon.
Full moon, 3mins, JPG straight out of camera
And a completely random looking shot from the other night (part of a global lightpainting collaboration)

Cheers! The light source is a very, very powerful spotlight with a homemade softbox (which isn't quite big enough, planning on making another). The image is 3 shots into 1, 1 photo for the background and 2 for the car so that light trails could be removed. I'll post some pics soon of the spotlight slartibartfast said:

Thanks. I'll need to try some shots near a full moon, good tip! I've wanted to go out again for some night shots, but it's been nothing but cloud cover here since then. Tried a few over the last few weeks & have a few samples below;
Fun with a hose in the evening;
Illuminated the subject with a Torch (got no external flash!)
Long exposure, que for star watching in Egypt
Downtown Bangkok from hotel window
My beloved lit by nelson column's floor lights
Still Trying to master the art, but I think some have come out well, I am particularly please with my first dark portrait shot.

I've been playing with off camera flash today. This is made up of 9 different shots, each with it's own flash.
