My experience with night images in DPC is quite the opposite. We shoot a night image either to bring out the charm of the night or the charm of the lights and reflections. DPC crowd prefers images that negate the dark of night. They want them more at sunset and if you want to show reflections make sure the sky is legible. That is how thry like them.

While the above is one style, that is, the well lit night image, it is not the only style but my gut feeling is that images representing the true values of the night is not highly received. They prefer only dazzle.


Hey graphicfunk, whenever I get a comment from you I take it very serious. one comment from you equals 3 comments from other people. You used the word "Dazzle" alot when commenting my photos. I just want you to know that I don't have one sunset photo in my portfolio, the nightshots are all at around midnight or later, so I wonder what you meant about representing the values of night.

Hello everyone! I had never tried a photo "outside late at night" until yesterday night, and I have to say thank you that you made me do it! It's very very very hard! I want to know if there is any possibility to make a decent picture, knowing that: my camera has 1" max time of exposure , and I live in Rome where all the street lights are orange.
In my yesterday night attempt I tried random different settings of the camera, but all the pictures I got were orange and with poor definition, even if I used a tripod and hi resolution. Any suggestions?
Thanks again!

If you're taking night photos, sunsets distract from the focus of the picture in my opinion. Unless they are your main subject, black skies provide a background just as blue skies do during the day.

I'll be the first to kick off the inevitable debate over the current Late Night challenge...

How late is late? Is it when it gets dark? Is it past my bedtime? Is it when David Letterman comes on?

:)


My question is whats the difference between late night...PM, and early morning....AM? And will AM images be DQed because they are not night PM images? :-)

And why is everybody assumeing that the image as to be made with avaliable light? Most of us have flash capabilities.
