Met up with my friends at the coffee shop last night.

This is what resulted:





We took too long shootin the **** and drinkin coffee though, and didn't have enough time to get all the shots I wanted.

Any pointers or constructive criticisms are appreciated lol... I wanna get better at this type of photography.

Thanks to Chad, I bought a CPL filter for my Canon XS, I'll get out this weekend to try it out, I've been playing with it as it is and it does a GREAT job at reducing glare in windows and reflection off the paint of cars.

Very nice pics!! I have a hard time shooting pics at night because of the lack of a tripod. They always come out too blurry. Can't wait to see more pics like this with that new filter

BTW - Nice Audi

Thanks, I used a tripod for those shots, and a 2 second self-timer on the shutter to avoid camera shake from hitting the shutter button.

As for my CPL filter, here's a teaser example I threw together.

Thanks, Stay tuned! lol... hopefully this weekend I'll have time to go somewhere with a good view of the city at night.

And believe it or not... I'm already over this new signature.

lol. That's the worst. I hate when you make a sig and it only lasts for a few days. I've done that A LOT lol. Can't wait to see what you will come up with.
I'm going to find some more photoshop vids and learn more tricks I think. I don't know nearly enough about layering or adjustment layers. I'd like to know more.
