bingo!....lights!
i think i figured it out.....
i went down the street here from my hovel to try shootin' the lights again. much better results this time. b4 going, i played around with the shutter speed AND the aperture. whew i tell you, Manual on this digital camera sure is different than the old SLR. first there are a few missing low shutter speeds. but with the adjustment of the aperture, it compensated what i needed to capture the lights almost perfectly. the adventure has been figuring it out. now if i can only remember next time. we'll see. the other problem i kept running into whether last night or tonight is the road is not evenly flat. it slides down the sides. and for sum reason, my camera will knot shoot a photo at times if i'm 'too close'. knot sure how the camera reads that, but it does it during the daylight hours too. at nighttime here it was worse. need to get the owner's manual out to see if i can read up on it. anyways, task accomplished!...for the most part anyways....now will debate whether to attempt sum more on Wednesday eve. at least tonight it was a little warmer because it got up to 40degrees today. had yet to get cold. but more snow on the way tonight and manana which means it's getting colder again. at least one nice thing around here, we know it doesn't last (except in the mountain ranges). so it's been a good day. now for sum more chillin....
