bought a new camera (fuji sp6500) a couple of weeks back and just bin out to take a few pics,

now i know theres camera shake on some (will be getting a tripod soon),
the white balance is wrong but dont really know how to change this (on auto),

first few

heres one i just had a quick mess with on photoshop first.

then i gave up cause i was freezing and my batteries were dying.

all comments welcome, (i know theres a lamppost in the way but i could get round it lol)

and if anyone could tell me how i could get a freezed pic at night ie very fast shutter speed because if i up the speed i cant change the apature (sp) enough to make it the right exposure if that makes sense.

cheers matt

If you up the speed, you won't get enought light. You can compensate for this by upping the ISO, this will give you more noise though. Alternatively, use a flash.

Somewhere with much less ambient light and you'll see a big difference.

Some reasonable pics there mate.

The ambient light in towns is a real ballache. I was shooting in Glasgow on Friday night and the ksy has came out orange in all my shots. Nothing I could do about it however.

Try an 82a, b or c filter.

Tripod, long shutter speed, something like a 10-20sec exposure should do it.
