Low Light Photography

Yesterday evening I went out a little too late... which meant that I didn't get great art shots, but I did have the chance to try out the Nikkor's vibration reduction (VR) technology, as well as to make some 'artsy' shots.

All of these were hand-held with VR (vibration reduction) on. Aperture priority unless otherwise noted.

Of note: Vibration Reduction ROCKS!

Context for these shots: Danehy Park, Cambridge MA, shortly after sunset.

A couple of teenage girls were rolling down the hill:

On the field at the bottom of the hill some boys were kicking a soccer ball around:
