Shot with a D60 in 2003, this was hand-held at 1/20. You are looking west along Canal Street, up the trolley line.

Had a hard time finding a straight line! ;)

Very nice perspective Kerry...I like the row of lights, which lead your eyes down the street...:cool:

.... also like how sharp you made it at the slow shutter speed !!! Remember to use a wide lens and will be easier With a 20mm lens you can shoot at 1/20th and get razor sharp images !!!

Alfred, agree re the wide angle lens. In this case, it was a 28-135@70mm. On that body that made it 112mm. I was shooting something else (images projected on buildings) and saw this opportunity. I loved the low-light performance of that camera.
