Shooting at night

,。
I like photographing city lights at night, and I've kept this hobby up for three years.
,。
The light is weak at night, so the first thing to adjust is the camera's position and angle.
,,。
I rest the camera on the railing, hold my breath, and then press the button.
,。
To see the detail clearly, you should enlarge the photo a little and check it.
,。
When it's too dark you can adjust the sensitivity, but the photo gets grainier.
,,。
Once it was drizzling, the wet ground reflected the light, and the whole photo looked wonderful.
,。
Back home I pick the best one, add a few words, and send it to friends.
,。
Photography taught me to wait, and showed me a city I can't see in daylight.
