This is the same photo with different shutter speeds. I used the exposure metre to get the "correct" medium exposure, but i actually think that it looks slightly underexposed - somewhere between the overexposure and the medium exposure probably would have looked best.
The first long exposure I took handheld, and the background and foreground are very shaky. The second one I took with the camera on a fence post, which removed some blur. In the first photo I think the people walking past look better than those in the second photo, even though they were both taken with the same camera settings.
The first exposure shows a shallow depth of field, and the second one a much wider one. In order to keep the images looking similar I raised the ISO for the second exposure, which has added a fair amount of noise in some of the darker areas. I chose to raise the ISO as I was shooting handheld and didn't want to increase the shutter speed for fear of blurring the image out.
