 This photo was taken on the roof of WTNH-TV where I work. The two dishes shown, part of 20 or so on the roof, are fairly large and used for uplinking to satellites. I thought these dishes would stand out at night against the lit buildings. To help bring out the dishes themselves, I popped the flash. I was surprised at how much motion was transferred to this shot even though it was firmly mounted on a tripod and I tried to stay still. It is not noticable at 640 wide, but at full resolution there is significant blurring on this 30 second exposure. The night was breezy and that might have had something to do with it.
