Hello, this is the first time i've ever taken pictures of anything but cars so i'd like some feedback from y'all if you don't mind. any comments or tips are welcome good or bad.
All were taken with a Sony A200, the night-time stuff is Southport marine lake and the others are from an undisclosed location
Thanks

The ones in the dark desperately need a longer shutter speed. The ones of the bridge look good but again, longer shutter needed. Looks like theres a bit of shake to the camera as well, was it on a tripod?
The last one of the bucket looks very noisy - high ISO?

iirc the bridge ones were 30 seconds, the camera was on a tripod yes, but unfortunately the wind played a factor, so i probably could have chosen a better night for pictures
in hindsight, bucket is the result of poor processing on my part

What was the aperture? For a long exposure like that I would have expected them to be a fair bit sharper.......

Yep definitely needed a bigger aperture. Ive been there and thought it would be a good place for night pics.
