I really like that last one you re edited. The last on in your first set is nice too. Snow is tricky with WB but if you go B & W then you can let yourself go a bit. The first three look a little crooked but straightening them in PP or reshooting the locations again keeping the horizon straight would fix that easily.

Overall I think you did a nice job!

Hmmm. That last one seems like it's missing something. Maybe if the background were more interesting. Like a Christmas tree or a church with it's steeple lights on or something...

Snow can be tricky to expose, try overexposing by 1 stop + to get it white.


There is a fine line between "hobby" and "obsession"

I like #2 nd #4 in your original post. I'd just PP them a little to make the horizon straight, but overall, I like the colors and mood.

I tried the exposure thing with the AEB for the firs time on a street. I don't know why they are a bit blurry

White balance seems off as the snow is green in a couple of the shots. Under exposed too.

To me, light trails are cool if they fully serve a purpose. The first of the last set is interesting but it seems too far away. Maybe if you were down lower (like below that power line running through the bottom of that first one). That last image just doesn't do it for me. The shiny street lights look cool but the red trails take away from it.

The last sidewalk scene I did I tried to avoid car lights as much as possible because I wanted to focus on the Christmas decorations. I think I got one shot without car lights that was OK but I was still not happy with it. It takes time and patience for these long exposures. So many things can go wrong in that 10 - 30+ second exposure.
