Description
I decided to go out and try some long exposure work, and I liked this one. Shame I exposed it for two long, hence the light cutting off the trees slightly.

I believe I exposed it for 30 seconds, I got a tad bit of grain, and the lighting conditions were hard to work with obviously, few places on the picture are still way too dark, although brightening the picture would throw off the rest of the picture. I did major editing in raw, I changed the temp quite dramatically. The lights were omitting more of a orange tone, that's how the lights are here. I edited them, and got the lights looking white. I like the sky, that was probably the most grainy part. I did some grain removal.

It's not bad shot, although I could of made obvious improvements. I might come back to this one and change the boarder, probably soon.

edit: the color profiles fooled me on this one, the picture looks quite dull.

enjoy.
