Questions

"Questions, we never will find answers to,

Questions which never stop coming to our minds

Questions that build us till we die

Questions, that intrigue us all our lives...

But to live it without answers is a question that keeps knocking us always... "

 

~ I found this quote on the web somewhere and then changed it some...

 

and in response to the most obvious question regarding this picture. It is a tugboat on the Arthur Kill (between Staten Island and Bayonne, NJ) at night. These are easy to take. Zoom in on some lights. Preferably some lights of varying colors. Street with traffic lights work well. So do tugboats - if you can find one.

 

After finding a target select MF (manual focus) and make everything out of focus. Then fire away. I find these easier to take with a fast shutter speed so I set the ISO to 1600. This is definitely wise if you are shooting a street with traffic since you want still lights rather than moving lights.
