Is it possible to find bright colors that are glowing.

Is it possible to find bright glowing colors at night that are distinct and have good hue?
I should have tested this on the fourth of july.

thank you

Hello Patrick,
This can be challenging because the auto exposure correction tends to overexpose lighted objects at night. You can get around this by disabling the auto exposure correction.

This assumes that what you are trying to detect has the same brightness when you are trying to detect it.

Hope this helps!
