The Christmas Ships

I've been trying to see the Christmas Ships for years. It's either too cold, too wet or I remember too late. But this year Jen made sure I remembered. In fact Pat and Jen even drove me and Tai to see them!
Here are my terrible pictures. If anyone has tips for taking pictures in the dark on a point and shoot, let me know!

A bonfire on the beach.
 
The largest ship. I love the way the light shines on the water.
 
An impromptu picture of me and Tai. Jen took this and she made the ship look great.

    I've had somewhat good luck at night by turning down the exposure a lot so you don't get that halo effect on the lights.

    And a tripod is so necessary or setting the camera on something so there isn't any shaking.

    And that's about all I figured out so far.

    Tripod for sure. We have a nice one that folds to smaller than a foot long- fits in a back pack or purse. That said- I love the second photo and cute one of you and Tai!
