Got a cable release and went downtown to try my first long-exposure night shots. These are the Houston skyline up-through an hour past sunset.

C&C much appreciated; I'd love to go back and try again.

Thanks Rick. That 10-22 is the greatest lens ever.

Thanks for asking. #2 is just a lens effect. I read somewhere else here on POTN that smaller apertures give the star effect. I picked f22 to lengthen the exposure and got lucky with the stars. #4 is just a long exposure. I had no idea it would give that effect, but it's basically just a very long exposure at night. Otherwise these are processed in LR3 but nothing fancy.
