I enjoy taking these shots.. Not when its cold out thou. You get the draft coming over the bridge from the traffic and it can really make it feel colder then it really is.. When I shot this it was about -5 out.. thats 23F for those is the states.
Focal Length: 24mm
ISO: 200
f:8.3 @ 30 sec

A little too dark for my liking, but I like the light trail from the cars along the road. Nicely done!

Ooohhh Miller.. this one is great!
Being a beginner... I'm about to ask a stupid question... How do you do this? I've asked people before, but they get very technical on me....
I really like that it's dark... i keep looking at it.

I'll make it non-technical for you
Things you will need:
1. Tripod (important)
2. Cable Release or Camera Self Timer (important)
Camera Settings:
1. Manual Camera Mode
2. Slow Shutter Speed
3. 100 ISO should be fine
4. Manual Focus
3. Mirror Lock Up (Not necessary)
Oops I forgot to mention aperture. You need to have your aperture set to a high number.
I'd say f/11 or more. The higher your aperture number is the more things will be in focus.

This would have been great as an HDR image, looks good as it is. The diagonal line of the lights leads you through the photo.
