Night Photos

Here are a few night photos from around People’s Square. They were all hand-held.

The new blue LED lights made it look very cool, but hard to get a good color representation in the photos. The camera thought that there was no way there could be so much blue, so it added in a lot of red to compensate. I tried several things in-camera to fix this, but in the end I just had to fix it by using a point on the photo to tell the computer what white was supposed to be.

I need to have some variety in times I shoot or everything will start to look the same! Gary over at Expatriate Games has some really great night photos; if I remember correctly we have the same camera so technically I should be able to shoot in as low of light as he does. These were all hand-held photos.
