NightScene - Early Attempt
Early ttempts made to shoot night scenes with a digital camera. Most pictures taken in spring 2003 using the 2mpix Olympus C-2100. It is interesting to see how the new corps of digital cameras improve in just a few short years after these pictures were taken.

Shot 01/04/2003. Disappointing night. Main light too hot. It highlights the purple wheels but it also shines the red wheel at the back. Distracting effect. Right 1/3 of the picture has good tone. Original
