I like night shots too, but I have difficulty getting them with a good quality. I don't like using the flash often because it makes the photo too bright...on occasion the grittiness works, like this one, but sometimes it doesn't!Riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07514733968779406889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7717405548205026477.post-85721521381123173422009-05-13T10:12:00.000-04:002009-05-13T10:12:00.000-04:00It is a very impressive looking building.
