Night Photos

Believe it or not, this picture was taken was taken at 8:52 pm.  No photoshop trickery here.  These photos are straight out of the camera.

At first glance it may look like this photo was taken during the day; however, upon closer inspection one can see that there are stars in the photo! In fact one of the photos captured a shooting star!

Since it was 9:00 p.m. when the photo was taken it was obviously dark.  To achieve the "day-time" look of the photo I left my shutter-speed open for 30 seconds allowing any available light to be picked up by the camera.  To "paint with light" I simply had my father point a flashlight at the camera and "write" in the air.
