Nighf-Eife for Your Camera

Night has always been
famed in song and story. Scarcely
a poet down through the ages has
failed to pay homage to that love-
ly velvet-cloaked mystery known
as Night. So why not take your
cue from all these advisers and
put your camera on the might
shift" too?
We think you'll find that pic
ture taking after dark is really a
very simple matter. Place your
camera on tripod or other solid
support and set it for time ex-
posure.
As for exactly how long the
exposure time should be, the best
answer we. can give you is "It all
depends on the amount of light"
Actually, it would be impossible
to list specific information on ex-
posure time for all the countless
opportunities that exist for TAX
ing pictures out of doors at night.
Exposure time may we'll run any
where from three or four seconds
to several minutes, all depending
on the light. You'll just have to
use your judgment and shoot sew
eral pictures at different lengths
of exposure.

On summer WeekendS and va
cation trips, nighttime driving is
bound to present lots of views
that will captivate you by their
sheer beauty. There'll be the
tWinkling lights of town seen in
the distance as you approach over
the brow of a hill, quiet little
tree-lined street in a residential
section, a park scene given fairy
outlines against the dark sky.
Any of these is likely to yield
good picture material-and so
will fair grounds, public build
ings, monuments, statues, and
historic shrines which are illumi-
mated at night. For such is the
magic of night that it often lends
enchantment and majesty to what
might be only an average view
when seen by daylight.
Whenever the night presents
breathtaking view, it's time for a
little picture-taking activity on
your part. Just get out of the car
and stretch your legs for a few
minutes while you set up your
camera and make a brief time ex-
posure.
