    One goal I’ve set myself in 2015 is getting better at shooting at night. My night time shots are just awful, terrible really. You’ve got it down to a science as yours are always fantastic.

    Thanks Kevin. It must be said that there’s a certain amount of trial and error involved. And a tripod or something similar to allow long exposure times becomes pretty important. The top photo has a decent length exposure and saw the camera (a Sony RX100 III) balanced on something flat on the bridge with a two second self timer to remove camera shake.

    In the end, I still have to do some tweaking in Lightroom to get things looking how I want them. These are a little over the top for naturalistic imagery, but even doing things with more subtlety takes a certain degree of tweaking of exposure, contrast, highlights and blacks to ensure that things aren’t too light or too blown out.
