  14. Amazing photos! Thanks for the tips on exposure, etc. I am still a baby photographer. What kind of camera do you use?

  15. Love these! Happy 2010, Lola!

  16. @Drew – Thanks! Yes, I used L0.3 to 200 ISO and a tripod. The lower the ISO, the better. If I’d actually left the balcony to go outside, I would have gotten better angles but man! the cold.
