This is a snapshot that turned out to be pretty cool. I still had the camera at f/8 and ISO 100 from the previous shot. I wasn't really paying attention to the settings, and the shutter speed ended up being 1/13 seconds. Even at 17mm, that's pretty slow for a handheld shot. But I was lucky and managed to hold the camera steadily enough to keep the background sharp while getting motion blur on the pedestrians.

As I tried to make sense of that reflection, I found I could not look away. His irises were brown, clouding into orange with brighter flecks around his pupils. Then it became as important not to look as to look, I feared I would be lost in rush of bronze motes."
From tonight its 10 degrees out... -6 with wind chill- I am not even kidding I got frost bit in like two minutes

I really like your photos maconahey . For not being an exclusively photo site, this forum has a good number of gifted photographers, and this thread proves that.

Nice photos. Both the yellowish, lamps giving the colour I suppose. And the bw underlining the night-time. Snow is hard to give a good presentation. You have made it great Goody!
