This was taken in pitch-black dark in downtown San Antonio at an area with several water features near one or our main landmarks, The Tower of the Americas. I could barely see the water through my viewfinder, but I put my shutter speed on 30 seconds, with an aperture of F10, and it was as if my camera created the light.
