I have a programmable shutter release called an intervalometer. It allows me to set whatever delay I want and then have the camera shoot as many frames as I want at whatever interval. It’s a wonderful piece of kit!

ah interesting! I've heard of those but haven't thought about them in years. nice work! your efforts pay off nicely!

Thanks - there is a very brief window in which one can take images such as this. It needs to be dark enough to convey a sense of lamplit riding, yet light enough for detail - and you need an ISO and f-stop that will allow you to keep yourself in sharp focus as you roll towards the camera. It's a real juggling act, shooting at this hour.

I really like this. Very moody and slightly threatening but with the warmth of the reflected light. Great picture. Thanks for sharing.

Did you see the results of the Strava photo competition? One of the winning shots was taken with a self timer in low light. Good but some of the @hoopdriver photos here are better.

I pedalled down to the Hastings seafront an hour before dawn on a cold, wet and misty morning. THe tide was ebbing. I went down onto the beach and loved this glipse of the massive Victorian ironwork of the pier cast against the heavy blue cast of the light. It created a moodiness that appealed to me and so I set up my tripod and camera and captured this image. I hope you like it.
