But anything low light or dark works.

Daft question - but how do you define low light?  I only ask because I often shoot at ISO 10000 + and its not always that dark! I do have some from last weeks holiday in scotland that I think will fit though..

I`d say just don`t shoot at 10,000 iso and capture the low light / darkness of the scene. That said  I`ve been struggling to get any entries in recently as time has passed me by.

You and me both to be honest!

Yes ISO 10000 (Or 25600 that I occasionally shoot at) does tend to turn dark into light!

Not a daft question at all, and I should have made it clear.
In my mind, anything that is not quite dark but getting there. You probably need the lights on to help you see better.
Hopefully not too vague.
