Night Windmill: Before and After

This windmill is located where the GGP meets Ocean Beach.  I tried to take a night shot of it, but as you can see the original came out a bit dark.  I lightened it up in Photoshop and it looks a little bit better.  It is still somewhat grainy.  I need to get back out there and try it with a lower film speed.

Beach Shots

I took these shots at Ocean Beach the other night and feel like they came out pretty well. I included the EXIF information for those of you who are interested. The colors have been adjusted a bit in PhotoShop. Just as an update to the previously posted photos: I figured out that the grainy shots may have occurred because the ISO speed was set at 1600, which was way too fast!

Top Shot:

Camera: Canon EOS Rebel XS

Shutter: 1/60

Aperture: f/5.0

Focal Length: 39mm

ISO: 400

Bottom Shot:

Camera: Canon EOS Rebel XS

Shutter: 1/60

Aperture: f/5.0

Focal Length: 18mm

ISO: 400

I am still in the process of learning what all of that means, and how to change them to get the desired shot. It is a lot of fun though, and although confusing at times, I am very excited to get back out there and try again.
