That's a useful tip

Ah...............the answer to my question!

Very nice. Why is he guarding the river? Is Evansville that dangerous a place? lol

A question. Why is there a strong "staring" effect on those two lamps to the left of the steps and not so strong on any of the rest? Wait! I just answered my own question. The ones along the pathway behind the steps seem to have dark tops to them putting the light on the path and not in a walker's eyes.. That could explain it. Did you use some kind of filter to achieve that result?

Mike,

All of the images in this folder were photographed at f1.4 or f1.2 except for this one which was at f16 or f22. The higher apperature settings give you the star like light pattern, but don't ask me why.

Thanks for your comments on images.

Interesting. I've not noticed that before. I'll give it a try.

Pretty good depth control for it being so dark. Focus on the dude's glasses is perfect.
