  1. My experience with cameras is a little behind the times to be honest as I took most of my pictures back in the day (1990-2000's+) with my old Minolta SLR 35mm camera but some things should be the same I'd guess.

     

    When taking pictures in dark surroundings with lights around (like traffic lights, building lights, moving cars etc) then if you want a really cool effect you can't beat "light trails" imo. B)

    As below...

    To do this you will need to set your camera up in position on a tripod firstly. Then with your camera set in "manual" mode set it to a long exposure setting (shutter speed open for longer) and adjust the "F" value to a higher setting (13-14 ish). You may need to play around to see what looks best and if possible use a remote control for the camera for taking the picture to avoid any camera shake.

     

    I searched Youtube just quickly to see if there was a video which explained it better. This is what I found...
