It gets fun when you start playing with torches, flashes and coloured lighting gels....
All I use is a basic model Sony Alpha SLR. I have a remote for it that holds the shutter open for aslong as I want, sometimes up to 10 mins.
I don't photoshop any of them, the colours are all done with the flashes and torches.

That bay window shot is brilliant!

If you have Photoshop, you can look at your settings that were used to take the photo!
File > File Info ...
All sorts of information in there!
Don't forget - Your settings are likely to change whether you're zoomed in or out. The further in you zoom, the darker it's going to get, so you may need to change settings according to focal length, too.

You do not need Photoshop to find out the file details. If you right click on a photo, or photofile, click on properties, then on summary, all the info is there.

Haha I found out by accident to be honest...
also if the image is online and not completely encrypted, you can use this
You just right click a picture, copy image code and paste it in.. Useful if you want to see how someone got a shot, but if it's from flickr, you can see the exif data there anyway
