Post your Long Exposure magic here.  Here is my first... This is a polar panorama comprised of 22 images with a 1 second shutter speed.  The ISO was set to 800.

One Franklin Park in Franklin, TN.

awesome.  Can you share your other settings besides the 1second exposure?  I have been playing with the long exposures, but cant get anything to look good.

Shutter: 1 second and ISO: 800 are the only settings that really matter here.  In Manual mode.

My Photo settings that generally stay the same are:  4:3  |  JPG + Raw

Something that may help is to take a photo and then hit the play button to review it.  Keep the Shutter at 1 second and tweek the ISO.  Keep reviewing until you find the sweet spot.

Still images that look good on a computer are often not as sharp in print. I prefer sacrificing iso, setting it at 1600, and cutting my exposure time in half - for night shots.   After tweaking luminescence in lightroom, I can't tell a difference between 800 and 1600, but if an image has motion blur, there is nothing one can really do about it.
