For those interested, this is a 30 second exposure at f/2.8, ISO 1600; in-camera long exposure and hi-ISO noise reduction turned on. Used my Tokina 11-16mm @ 11mm -- tripod mounted, of course. I am thrilled with the result (I did a little further noise reduction and sharpening in Capture NX2). This was taken at about 9:10 in the evening -- roughly 2 hours after sunset. The glow is the last light of the day before the darkness sets in fully.
