December 12, 2011 -- Holiday Lights (Tradition #4)

Taking these night photos is difficult. Difficult to do without a tripod, which I haven't used in any of these. Difficult to capture without a lot of grainy noise. Still, they do bring out the spirit of this season, so colorful and fun (as in this photo with the train seeming to head around the perimeter of the upper porch).  I tried to reduce the noise and sharpen the photo, but not with much success. 


I have learned a lot about these iPhone images. If you go back and look through these on the blog you will see that the f stop is almost always f2.8 and the shutter speed always the same at 1/15s. What differs is the ISO. that is how the camera works, not by changing the diaphragm or the shutter speed, but always the ISO.


f2.8 | 1/15s | ISO 1000 | iPhone 4
