Details: This was the first successful photograph I took on the night of 29th September 2010, the subject being London Underground liveried Ford Transit Connect van 6956F parked on York Street near Griffith House. I got the white balance right and gave it a 15 second exposure (luckily nothing drove in front during this) at f2.8. The results are quite pleasant, although could almost be mistaken for a daylight shot. Interestingly I also shot this at f8 over 50 seconds but the results were a lot darker. For convenience I reduced the exposure for later shots down to about 2 seconds, relying on post-editing to improve the balance. The larger aperture required did not result in any noticeable loss of depth of field.
