Colonial Williamsburg @ Night, Merchant's Square

[spinaltap]

Some night shots I took last night using long exposures and my new tripod. This session was my first attempt at ever doing night photography, and for that reason I think they came out pretty well. I like the ghost in the first one, i think it adds something to the image, considering this area is like 400 years old. I also liked the windows inthe second one with the light pattern on the ground. I think i may have overprocessed it a bit though, so im gonna work on it some tonight if i have time.

i think the lens flare is a bit too much, i think these are great shots on their own and would look better without it.

beautiful night shots though. I'm going to williamsburg for a few days in the fall and can't wait to take pictures.

I like the ghost in the first one, Ghost aside, I think you picked up some pretty good detail in these night shots. :D

I've been there and these are nice shots, my only question, what did you to with all the people?
