It was a cold dark night . . .

I should have put “I an an idiot” as the title for this one. I went out when I was dead tired after an all day conference to take some night shots and more importantly to help someone else learn how. It was very windy. If you know anything about shooting at night especially using the slower shutter speeds, a little wind is just enough to wreck the shot. There was a lot of wind. I did get a few shots but most were ruined. Not just because of the wind but because I carried my camera around all day with the lens cap off and the lens was dirty. I should know better. The photo was taken from Harriet Island in St. Paul. An excellent place to take photos of water, bridges, buildings, people, boats, wildflowers and probably half a dozen things I didn’t think to mention.
