Night & Light

Blurred Lights

Jimmy J Streak

f/6.3

5 sec

Tripod

For this shot I set up my camera with a 5 second exposure time so that it would take in more light and make streaks out of any of the cars driving past Jimmy Johns. I made sure to use my self timer so that there wouldn't be any shake from when i pressed the button. I didnt do anything besides resize these photos in Photoshop.

f/11

5 sec

With this shot I focused on a specific light and turned off my self timer and ditched the tripod. I half clicked to focus on the light and then held it as I moved the light into the starting position and after pressing down I just drew with my camera remembering where the light was. The result is this apple/heart looking thing. The reason I chose this one over my other attempts is that the little lights/reflections everywhere else shows the same apple shape just a lot less bold and I liked the way that looked.

15 sec

Tripod

For this I bused out the tripod again and changed my exposure time to 15 sec. This gave me time to paint the ground with my light and make a trail. I played around a lot with this and found some interesting shots. This one was one of my favorites because its pretty simple and the trail goes well with the trees. One interesting thing I found out was if I got close to the trees and painted on them it actually looked like silver spray-paint which was pretty cool.


Dirt and Ice

Civil Defense Caves

f/6.3

Now this was just a shot I wanted to throw in. i went to the caves and there was still a lot of frozen puddles inside the cave. So this is just a cool shot of me lighting up the ice with my flashlight and it showing all the little dirt scribbles in the ice.

f/4.5

30 sec

Tripod

I probably spent the most time doing the light sketching. It was the most fun. My first one I drew a pony and then a penguin. I needed more than 15 sec for the penguin so you'll notice it has a 30 sec exposure time, unlike the simple horse. So i set up the camera on the tripod again and took the shot then ran out with the light and pointed it at the lens and just started drawing. Found out the larger the drawing the better it will turn out. At least with the light i was using. If it was too small then the light would blurr together and it would end up a blob.
