I so love your night shots! Are you setting your camera manually, or are you using pre-sets in its programming?

Thank you! And how exciting to get a photo question! That’s the first one ever! It’s manual. The challenge is always to figure out the exposure before freezing to death, or before the battery dies. What seems to work is choose the aperture first, then start with a really high ISO, for a fast (but noisy) exposure. Once the high-ISO exposure time is found, then I do the math to figure out roughly how long that would be at the lower ISO . And doing math in the dark is a nice diversion during a long evening!
