There is nothing quite as visually spectacular as The Cowichan Exhibition Fair Grounds after dark. The Neon lights light up the night. A perfect opportunity to try some long exposure photography. The neon lights alone are a reason to visit the Fair Grounds after dark. Add the excitement of the music and the screams of the crowds the smell of the cotton candy and corn dogs and it is a full sensory experience. I bumped up the ISO for some nice shots of the colored lights on the Farris wheel. Just after the dark creeps into the sky I can start to slow the shutter speed to capture some blurred motion shots. Find rides that move fast for a great blur effect. . . . Use a tripod, watch out for people in the frame unless you don't mind their movement being blurred as well. You can find an endless number of interesting images to shoot. Here is the same ride a little longer shutter speed and add a Dutch angle for more interest. Day time events at the fair.
