Time of night..hmm...We shot from dusk until 10pm or so.. The lightning shots and the street were probably taken around 8:30 or 9pm during the thunderstorm.
As far as the wide angle lens used... I used either a the Canon Kit lens 18 - 55m.. or my Tamron 28-300. I think most of those were the Tamron lens.. Not the best glass in the world but when you are holding the shutter open that long..and have that much potential for movement..does that really matter?
What negative effects chem other than the wind blurring... that shot of the path isn't feasible to take under any other conditions than a long exposure and neither would the lightning pics? The other shots.. I wanted blur.. thats why I was out for long exposure night photography
