Went shooting last night doing skylines at night for the first time. I should have probably put this under eager to learn since I am still pretty new to photography, but thought I would post here instead. Please give any C&C! Thanks ahead of time!:D

Shellie,
I just got back from Nashville. I conducted a Tamron workshop there.

You captured the big city look, small town feeling I got while I was there.
Beautiful image, beautiful town.

What was your WB setting? The colors are sweet.

Food for thought, stop down (smaller aperture, larger F #) a little more.
The lens sharpness tends to be best (most lenses) from F8-F11 +/-.
This will give you a longer shutter speed, resulting in a completely silky looking river.

Do you shop at Dury's? Good folks! They were the Tamron workshop host store.

Thanks James

My WB setting was auto! Did very nice I think.....here is a similar shot that I found that was taken at f8 and 6 sec. I didnt even notice the difference in the water! Thanks! Too bad I didnt know that you were coming to visit!! LOL

I like it Shellie With these images you need to have them razor sharp and if you stop down more can get neat effects from the lights. I like the perspective with the reflection !!! Excellent !!!
