My opinion is that city scenes always look better at night. Nice pics.

Carpe Noctem. Seize the night.

The shots turned out really good.

And, yes, it was a great night for exploring. Its hard to realize how beautiful that city actually is until you see it from atop a roof at night.

Just need some flashlights that arent complete shit. It was a decent back up but thats all those 2 could ever be used for

Still kinda mad that the zoomed in shots of the train station didn't come out very good.

There's a tagger down here who goes by "GASM". I always wonder if these common tags turn out to be the same person.

Yes, the GASM of Louisville is in fact just as unskilled as the GASM of Detroit.

Does your camera have a self timer? Try putting it on the self timer setting, get your shot in focus, then take the picture. This will give you a few seconds to let the camera stabilize. This always solved that problem for me as I have a shitty tripod!

funny how i never thought of that! you are a genius! lol yeah next time I will do that and get my shot when we go rooftoppin again! my tripod is fairly new and a nice one but it was just my hands from letting go of the button that shook it a little.
