Nightime Snow

A couple of weeks ago we had a little snow. I took this opportunity to try some long nighttime exposures. There is definitely an art to nighttime photography (an art I haven't gotten the hang of yet.)

I took about 20 pictures and this is the only one that was interesting enough to post.

Some details of this shot:
Taken at 6:25PM and it was pitch dark.
Shutter speed: 25 seconds
Lens Aperture: F/4
ISO Speed: ISO-100

One interesting aspect about nighttime pictures is that even though it is pitch dark, there is typically enough ambient light to take pictures. You just have to have really long exposure times, and a subject that will sit still.
