Once again I am going to post night photography. Today pictures are from the front of the Miramare hotel and a Haagen-Dazs cafe. The album is here.

Every time I hold camera in my hands while it is dark, I am fighting with myself about using a tripod. I do have it always in the car, but mounting a camera on the tripod and the possibility of walking around with one don’t feel like a lot of excitement. So I don’t. But than, every time I look at the pictures that I had to take with f/4 and ISO1600 I kick myself in the butt for not using a tripod. Results could have been so much better with a slower aperture and lower ISO.
