Boston and North/south of Boston.

The Boston light one is a sixteen minute exposure at ISO 50 on my Canon 1DMKII 8 MP DSLR.
This was the first digital camera that allowed me to actually shoot like I did with film.

A 15.8 minute exposure. Canon 1DMKII. ISO 50, 70-200L2.8 IS at 200MM F10. No filter.
A fairly long burn with Noise Reduction on, so it took over 30 minutes to do. I still had a few black pixels to clone out, but the result was acceptable. A bit of Noise Ninja as well.
Cropped from 8 MP rectangle. I found the shot called for the pano look.
It was foggy and I could only see the beacon and a few light glows on the left. This was over a mile off shore.

The scenes was in total darkness except for the moving beam, so I figured out a time that got an image that would not exist otherwise. Glad you like it.

The other
Wooden Bridge Ashland NH USA

Canon 5D 24-70 L Canon lens ISO 100 at 70mm shot in Canon RAW format
F11 280 seconds. Merged with another at f11 sixty seconds. Tone mapped, a little cloning of the star trails. Slight ghost boating due to longer exposure times and moving objects.

Here;s one from CT:

Great shots. Wish I had time to do some photography when i was in Boston but I just go for short 2/3 day stints for work. For some reason they like me to be actually working when i'm there, go figure...

The paper i work for shoots Nikon nd being Director of Photography i gotta be proficient with the nikon i do have to say the vertical grip on the D300 is nice. So is the 300mm 2.8. ill post some links to my wedding photography site when its all said and done.

My dad now ha a D300 at age 78 and he shoots hundreds of shots a month! he's been a digital fan for almost ten years now. I gave him one of my older digital cameras then he got a D100 Nikon.
I've got three now and I just got a small Panasonic LX3 for an everywhere camera since it shoots RAW, has a fast lens and optical stabilization.
Cameras are fun toys and tools.
I modded one Canon to shoot infared only. Here's an infared panorama from it:
