Went out for a bit tonight here and there for some pics for its maiden voyage

They're probably mostly similar but in different locations, but oh well































They've all had a little tweaking in PS, some very minor but some had a bit more work, let me know what you think

Is it a point and shoot set to auto?

Major thing that jumps out to me is that they are very very noisy, iso needs turned down and exposure length turned up.

As above.

For best pictures you need the ISO as low as possible, as the higher the ISO is the more noisy the picture is. If you're taking pics at night the 'Auto' mode will increase the ISO which requires a not-so-long shutter speed.

The idea of a tripod is so you can use a low ISO (which will require a long shutter speed at night) basically.

Yeah it's a compact camera but I had it set to Night Landscape for the last few so it was using mostly 1/4 second. I always forget that I can set the ISO, but not the shutter speed.

I did notice that they're a bit noisy on the PC (a few aren't too bad) but most looked alright on the camera screen.

Cheers Adam, spoiler should be picked up on Weds, alloys getting done definitely before PVS but I've got to pull my finger out
