It's been ages since I've been here, but be rest assured I promised I wouldn't forget you guys.
Life has been going along at about a million miles an hour, as you may remember I met somebody called Jon back in June, we're still together, in fact we have plans to tie the knot late next year, but more of that later :)
I see I have alot of catching up to do, plus those promised London pictures, which I shall post asap.
Look forward to hearing back from you

Hey There Chris!! It's nice to hear from you and I'm glad everything is going well for you over there!
We're all looking forward to seeing your pictures. I need to grab my camera and go take some pictures too. :D

note, when I dialed the ISO to 800 I got a LOT of grainy stuff! :P
the other thing that was fascinating for me is that from the first pic to the last, only 90 seconds had passed...

Ok here I tried to capture the crystal quality of the water...it was reflecting the sunset and sparkling like a diamond as it came out...I LOVE running water...
David In Indy:
High ISOs (800 and higher with Canon cameras) and very slow shutter speeds (2 seconds or slower) will yield image noise. It will continue to get worse as you raise the ISO higher or the shutter speed slower. The sepia setting will give your pictures a coppery finish and an antique look.
I love taking pictures of sunsets. They are one of my favorite things to photograph. I need to get my ass up and shoot some more pictures soon.
Those are really nice pictures Jess! Thanks for posting them. You managed to get many different effects in those pictures. A little bit of everything! :)

Oh, you photographed the stream of water!! If you want to have some fun with that, try setting a very high shutter speed (something like 1/1250 or maybe even higher if your camera allows it) and watch what happens! If you're successful, you will "stop" the water. :)
