Night photography please! The one thing I really struggle on getting good photos is night photography!

I'm just doing a sampler from the other thread that already contained some suggestions:
patty^_^: photoshop tutorials
Luis: how to change lenses
rei_vilo: fireworks pictures, playing with dof, choosing the right lens, composing a picture
Camut: Portraits, Wedding photography, Best equipment for the different types of photography
CovertOne: how to use the brightness histogram

Hi Gordon, I'd just like to add second votes for both Photoshop tutorials and some hints on how to read the histogram, I've never known what to do with it.

I would like a how to on: Histograms, and Portraits.

Thanks, Jordan M.

I've often read about using the sky to do the metering, i.e. pointing the camera at the sky to see the amount of light available and then using that to get the exposure you want on your subject. This in itself sounds quite easy, but maybe with a video example it would be perfectly clear how to use this technique to get different results (or rather, the result the photographer is after).

Great suggestions everyone! Most of these are already in the pipeline!

I would like to see night shots, especially with different filters to give off different effects.

Also, how about differant filters for differant effects /what filters to use for when. . .
