I loved to play with the light in the night and catch its reflects.
To get successful images I had to play with the exposure time but also with the ISO number, depending what I wanted to catch on the image.
For those pictures I had open for a long time the exposure time and I had the ISO number not too high,( 200-400 ) just enough to help the camera to catch the shapes but letting the light coming in the camera to do the job, in this way I got images were the shapes are enough sharp but is the street light what is drawing them. The complication of those photographs is I had to stand without a tripod for about half second to take them, so I had to take them several times, as my hands are quiet shaky.
Then to take photographs of the reflects on the water I had to use a little higher ISO number so I could use a little faster shot, a lower exposition time, so I could get defined shapes, instead unfocused blobs of light.
All those pictures, taken at midnight, on my way back to work, weren't the easier shots, and I took some time in regulate my camera, but I ended up being able to catch what I wanted in a successful way: the light's reflect over the river .
