Night Lights
Photography in low light is different as night and day, literally. Our camera club visited the local miniature golf course and I composed this shot. I would not have been able to capture the concentric circles if I photographed this same spinning windmill blade during the day.
Here is the same object closer and from a different angle.
Both of these shots required long exposures (13-15 seconds in both of these cases), a tripod, and some patience.- Karen
I'm impressed. Very striking shots.
ReplyDeleteThe first one is so neat. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the same effect could be achieved by using a regular digital camera. Great shots by the way.
ReplyDeleteWow, fantastic. What a shame the maximum exposure on my point and shoot camera is 0.25 seconds :-(
ReplyDeleteLove the lights. Night shooting can be tricky but like you said with patience, the results can be really amazing.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots! I am always inspired by others' night time photography as I struggle so much with it. You are so right though about how we would not have seen those lovely effects during the day.
ReplyDeletevery impressive and appealing shots. well done.
ReplyDeleteYogi: Thanks!
ReplyDeleteRainfield61: Thanks! I think there's lots of trial & error with night shots for me anyways.
Rosebelle: If you have a point & shoot, probably not. Most likely if you have a dslr.
John: It's a good excuse for a new camera. :D
flutietootie: Thanks! Yes, practice, practice, practice!
Emm: The hard part is getting motivated to want to go out at night to take photos. :D
Life Ramblings: Thank you!
Awesome shot! I wanna goout and night and practice too! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are beyond cool.
ReplyDeleteTwo very striking pictures indeed. I'm impressed and inspired!
ReplyDeleteWow, Karen! I'm really enjoying looking at these. I love the layering in the second photo.
