I got one picture that came out presentable.  I took these pics at around 3 am.  The shot is of 2 trees in front of my neighbor&#8217;s home.  I&#8217;m not sure why, but I exposed for the highlights but the sky kept coming out lighter than it actually was.  I live in Houston so the sky is never black, but this made it look almost like dusk.  All in all, however, I am learning lots about available light exposure.<\/p>\n<p><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_dYWFgMlwkco\/R00wkJQAiQI\/AAAAAAAAALY\/zm5glskGdy0\/s1600-h\/_MG_2824+%282%29.jpg\"><img style=\"cursor: pointer;\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_dYWFgMlwkco\/R00wkJQAiQI\/AAAAAAAAALY\/zm5glskGdy0\/s400\/_MG_2824+%282%29.jpg\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137816147416090882\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As always, feedback is welcome and encouraged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; But I&#8217;m not.
