This shot and the one below it was taken in low light. In this particular shot, the shutter was open for 30 seconds. The only light was a small amount of available daylight filtering in from the windows on unseen left. and the candle. The moment was extremely overcast and dark in preparation for a large thunderstorm.

For this image I took five photos all in very low light. Only some available daylight (you can see the light pattern between the Buddha statue and the Buddha photo). As in the previous photo, the only other light was the candlelight. I was interested in seeing how much light the candle offered using HDR. I had the camera on a tripod with a remote shutter release to minimize any vibrations. Although I did not lock the shutter mirror, there seems to be almost no visible vibration. I set the lense with a constant aperture of f5.6 and batched the photos automatically. The result was a range of shutter speeds from 9 - 30 seconds with changes in the EV from -1.67 to +2.33. It's amazing to me that we see so much more light in this HDR and the candle glow is lovely.
