Maryville Town Square at Night

This was taken as part of the HooHaa52 Challenge. The topic for this week was "Night".

 

When I heard what the topic was going to be, this image came to mind. Finding the time to get out and attempt the shot was a different matter. When I finally found a night that worked well, it was windy. I got all set up before realizing I didn't have a memory card with me. So I had to drive home and come back. I finally got set up and was taking images up until my camera's battery died. This was one of the ones I liked most because I was able to get cars going both directions and streaks through the enter shot. It wasn't until later, when talking in the group discussion, that I realized one mistake I made. I'm so used to shooting the night sky that I forgot to reset the F-Stop for F/20+ instead of F/4. That might have changed a few things. Oh well. Something to try again someday.

 

I had been shooting at a different angle, but then decided to switch it to this angle to get the flags. I liked the addition of the flags waving in the shot.
