Harbour

Near the steam clock one evening...







.. farther along...







.. a zoooomy shot to bring the distant background closer...







.. and even closer.







Commercial Buildings.







Moving on, the pierheads on another evening...








.. a sucker for a sunset...








.. with Noirmont in the distance.







A little later.








Another evening, another sky....







.. hmmmm....









.. yes, it is a bit much....




.. but here's something slightly different.
While in charge of a little one (face obscured here by crude cartoon I hope gives you a giggle or more), I discovered that a 1 or 2 seconds long exposure niteshot can make for a nice portrait of some willing subject if you use the flash as well. With a tripod it would have worked out even better, without the background blurred by movement.

You get the person lit nice and clearly by the flash, and a postcard-like niteshot background. And, almost strangely, if they move a bit during the long exposure, you get a shadow effect which makes the background look like they're standing in front of a picture :)

I will experiment some more, perhaps intentionally moving the camera for some light trail effects while the person remains sharp by the much quicker burst of light from the flash.
