Beuatiful views mate, hope you had a good time

Looks very nice.

For the night shots, I imagine you are just putting the camera into night mode? All this will do is give a 2.3s shutter lag and increase the ISO to something stupid like 800.......that is why it is so grainy and no detail.

You need to put the camera into manual mode and inscrease the shutter lag to around 10seconds with an ISO of around 200 you will get an amazing photo.

You will need a tripod for proper night shots, and you will really neeed to play around with the shutter lag times depending on how dark it is and the sources of light that are around.

These pictures were taken whilst in a storm, right in it, I went outside and couldn't get my breath at first. I walked into the town and saw a bolt of lightning go right down the centre of the valley, amazing to watch.

Pictures are pretty much all the same area as I kept forgetting my cam when I went out, this is IMO one of the best pictures I got at the top of the mountains, way up from where we were staying
