Some of my favorite photos, I'm mostly into aviation photography, but do always bring my small Sony RX100 with me everywhere, the first photo was a handheld shot taken at 1/5th shutterspeed.

I do love the select color mode Sony cameras offer.

This one is my best photo ever! It's actually a perfectly still reflection turned 90 degrees to the left because I saw what I thought was a face.

Guess I'll make this my first post. Here's a shot of the Andes, followed by one from Scotland, then one taken out the back of a van returning from shark driving in South Africa. Instagram link in my signature, don't want to litter the thread here too much. :)

That shot if Branson was shear luck. Only night shot I’ve ever gotten to come out good. Taken handheld canon t6i with 18-55 lense while moving.. luck is all that was. Lol

we want to focus on getting our night photography better too, but it’s more complicated than anything else I’ve shot. Lol

Night photography is the most technically challenging you can do, but also IMO the most fun.
I wish i could say there was a trick to getting perfect shots every time. but it heavily depends on what effect youre going for.
I am personally a fan of turning my shutter speed REALLY low, and cranking my ISO up to compensate for it. Gives a nice dramatic feeling, and gives a cool effect to anything moving, like headlights and tail lights.

Also, unless you're running your camera in "Bulb" mode, try bracketing with night photography. super useful, and with most DSLR/Mirrorless cameras they offer that as a function.

Thanks for the tips. We need to do more of it as that’s how you learn. It just seems we are always busy then asleep. Lol

Taken during this year's annual trek out to Death Valley. I think this was maybe my 5th or 6th visit to the park, and eventually I got what I was looking for at Mesquite Dunes.

Roughly the same location a few years earlier, when the goal was to get some sunrise color.
