Trying out Night shots with long exposure settings

I had a sunset pic uploaded, but the next day it looked not nearly as glorious as I hoped, so I replaced it with another pic. I'll have to learn how to use the new camera to get a good sunset pic. This is a piece of a macro shot of a stone chip in the paint on the hood of the car, (2003 "Satellite") cropped out but left at full resolution. There's also a inset of another shot of the same stone chip, with a dime for scale.

'Harvest'Cherry tomato plants in my garden after an overnight rain. I used a Canon A-95 on a tripod, shooting with available light and slow shutter speeds (around 1 second at f 4.5).

Got bored driving one night so I hauled out my camera, placed it on the dash and held the shutter open for about 10 seconds.This was taken around summer of 1991 on Highway 1 westbound approaching Vancouver, BC

If i would have thought of it, I would have brought my camera since the RCA Dome has just been deflated. I work in Indianapolis and watched it disappear, rather interesting!!
