The Right Time of Day Or Night for Taking Photographs – Great Tips for Photographers…
March 30, 2010 | Category: General
www.clickherephotographytips.com Being able to take photographs at any time of the Day or Night really allows the photographer to add a certain mood to the subject that they are photographing. This video has been produced to show you that regardless of the time that you take your photograph, the results can be significantly different from the harsh lighting at mid-day to the subtle lighting of early morning or early evening. Perhaps you have seen a calendar where the lighting did not necessarily suit the location (mood of the shot), maybe it looked like the shot could have been taken out of a car window as the car drove by? Please think about this Could the results have been much better if the photograph was taken at a different time of the day, or; perhaps even early evening? Not only is this video about taking photos at different times of the Day Night, it is also about setting a particular mood in your photography. I have created my videos to assist people that are either new to photography or people with a basic understanding of photography. So, regardless whether you use a Digital Camera, a film camera or video camera there may be some skills within my presentation to assist you to become perhaps more passionate about taking photographs, or; recording video Just before I go I a not an expert in photography, actually I am not a professional photographer as I am simply a person that has some skills that I enjoy sharing with others. I hope that you enjoy the photography …

It is important that you determine what it is that you need to expose correctly when you take your meter (exposure) readings.
I hope this answers your question?

Correct Exposure The correct exposure is a combination of ISO /ASA selection, Shutter Speed, Aperture and White Balance. It is very important that all of these factors align correctly.
I have made a few videos about the above, so go and have a look at them if you have time.
You can actually work out your exposure easily using the inbuilt exposure meter in your camera You then simply transfer your Automatic meter readings into the cameras Manual mode.

Other things you need to decide are:
Shutter Speed A slow shutter speed will allow you to record long light trails from vehicle lights, people moving etc.
Aperture This will determine the amount of Depth Of Field or how large the focusing area (in front of and behind your focal point) will be in focus.
White Balance The white balance setting for your camera should correspond with the lighting conditions that you are photographing in

This is a difficult question to answer, thanks for asking thou
To take such a photograph in Manual Operation you firstly need to determine the ASA / ISO that you will use for the shot. The lower the ASA rating, the finer the noise or grain, higher ASA ratings result in much more noise.
Unless you want your photograph to have a particular feel, use a lower ASA like 100 for example.
