Theme Parks: Night Photography

[Hockeyman55]

Jmercer, The biggest thing you have to ask yourself is if you really want to carry an average size tripod around with you while at the park. If you don't mind doing that then make sure you invest in one that is nice and sturdy so the wind won't blow it over and also one that will reach over crowds. Mine is roughly 5ft tall and just doesnt cut it if I'm stuck in the middle of a crowd.

I love the night shots, especially the long exposures. Iv'e had a Nikon D3100 for a couple of years now but never got close to anything like these. Any tips?

Thanks HTF. Fireworks shots and I don't always see eye to eye. This would have been better had that person have their head blocking the castle

On my way out of the park for the evening and was just messing around with the fisheye trying to get some shots I havent tried in the past. This trip I went heavy on the fisheye and my next trip in Feb plan to try a little more variety.
