I think Ralf does some kind of image stacking using multiple shorter
exposures ... or he used to.
That's the sense I got from his answer when I asked here on PDML.
Larry's probably the most experienced person to ask about dealing with
the cops when they inevitably come around to find out what you're up to.
I try to be polite but firm that what I'm doing is lawful and completely
normal (or, at least normal for photographers).

If Marnie wants to surreptitiously shoot an oil refinery, setting
fire to steel wool and waving it about in the night sky may be
counterproductive...

Subject: Seeking Night Shooting Advice
Never really done that much night shooting.
I am, again, think it's been 5 years, taking a photo class that ends in a
little show (mat & frame & hang pics & invite family & friends). You pick a
theme to shoot around. I am, again, choosing an environmental one.
There is an oil refinery nearby that is lit up like a fairy castle at
night. They don't like you taking pictures (if they see you on or near their
property), but there is a spot across the freeway where I think I could get a
good night shot.
Only don't know how to begin. High ISO? Long exposure? Never done HDR,
would that be better? (Definitely plan on using the old tripod, and I do have
a remote.) I can try different approaches and shoot it again on return
trips.
Frankly, any advise, links, whatever would be greatly appreciated. I know
there are people on this list who have done a fair amount or a lot of night
photography.
TIA, Marnie aka Doe :-) I just need some direction to start in.
