The best photo is often the difference is as clear as Night and Day

It is a Night and Day difference between these photos. Maybe we need to remember that saying next time we travel.

I find that few photos from the middle of the day stand up to dusk and nighttime photos.

Fuji X-E2, 55-200mm, ISO 6400, ƒ/11, 1/5 seconds [I stitched three images together, and the photo was shot on a tripod with a 2-second delay to eliminate camera shake]

There is a significant difference to me between the two photos.

Here are a couple of quick tips for shooting the nighttime shot.

• Use Tripod
• Use a cable release or shoot on delay [I used a 2-second delay]
• Shooting ƒ/22 will give you a star effect around the lights. I shot at ƒ/11
• Also, this is a great way to eliminate many of those pesty power lines
