 This is my first attempt at night photography. I'm not happy with the clarity... the buildings are a little blurred. I guess I need to get a remote. It was a learning experience, though, so I guess all is not lost.

My first night shots were probably taken from the same spot and I had the same issues LOL. :)

Classis lights on Puget Sound. Scaling back the title would be better.

Looks just like something I'd see on a shelf in a store. Simple, pleasing, and a beautiful capture of a main attraction in the city. Very nicely done.

too dark, try to keep cam around ambient light when taking a long expsoure. Or try dropping shutter speeds to at least 20 seconds .

Great night shot. Love your composition and your choice of font. I was born in Seattle- I would love to go back there. You make it look soooooooo BEAUTIFUL!

Your photo looks really blurry. Did you use a tripod? If it were in focus I would have scored it 3 or 4 points higher.
