Private Label posted:I love this. I've always wanted to learn how to do these types of shots; I read in another thread about either putting exposures together (I have only 30 sec exposure max) or taking a bulb shot. How do you go about doing it? Whenever I do night shots, I tend to have it get way too bright because of other light pollution... how do you get around that? You need a shutter release and a tripod for this. Then, you can open the shutter for as long as you want (teh bulb shot), and without touching the camera. If you're worried about light pollution, it's best to stop down to f11 or 16. At least, that's what I did for my first foray into night photos. I blew a lot of film because I had no idea how long to expose, either. So, I just did 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 15s, 30s, and 1min. Nondo's crazy star blur was probably more like 20 minutes, I think. Anyway, I would recommend such experiments, so you can get a better feel for it. Generally, though, 30s exposure is plenty. I think most of mine were best at 15s and 30s.
