Quick bump before I got out into the wild to do some shopping. I still plan on being there about 3-3:30ish depending on how traffic in Fairview Heights, and how long it takes me to get back home from there.

I suppose I will head out too, I'm gonna take the long way and avoid the highway so I think we may get there at about the same time. see you there Kyle!

heres what you do to make your pictures look better at night

get a tripod and a big dumb flashlight

use your cameras self timer to avoid camera shake when autofocusing

shine the light on the car while your camera is autofocusing

once the shutter clicks, it'll probably be a long exposure so while its exposing, shine the light on the car as if you were painting your car with the light ( your camera should have atleast a 15 second shutter speed option in M or TV mode, the light painting will brighten the car)

and repeat. even if you have a point and shoot, its still possible to take good pictures at night.

now, if youre like me and have a mid level 8mp digital slr (the canon 30D ), its alot easier because i have stuff like remote shutters, bulb mode, and a speedlight off camera flash to help with autofocus, but you can still get by with a point and shoot
