    I'm with you on night shots being my favorite. I also do amateur astronomy as a hobby so some of my first DSLR shots were night sky landscapes. When done right you can pull out starlight from stars that you can't see naked eye. You also start getting into Milky Way shots and other cool effects that long exposures at night give you. I think it really tests the limits of your equipment and eye.

    Another awesome thing to try with night photography is to bring a cheap flash with you, so if you're exposing for say 10 seconds and getting loads of awesome light trails, you then trigger the flash to fire on a subject like a person so they appear super sharp in the frame despite everything else with movement being super blurry. Just make sure you're not overpowering that flash. It might need a ton of diffusion!

  • @dodmedia

    6 жыл бұрын

    Depends how skilled you are at compositing I guess. I'd opt to fire it in the same shot so it's one RAW file and it can all be done from Lightroom instead of having to go into Photoshop and do any stitching. If you've got the exposure set for say 30 seconds (or more in Bulb mode) then just have your subject run out to where they need to be, and fire off the flash once. It'll probably take a couple of goes to get the flash exposure right.

    A super fun addition to night photography is bringing along a laser pointer, or little multi colored flash light and painting with that light during your long exposures.

We like to go on portage and backcountry camping trips, and really need a lightweight, reliable light for filming at night.

    Tip for not shaking the camera when you have a slow shutter speed. I do a shot delay (usually used for getting in a group picture before it shoots or something like that) at like 2 seconds. Then just press it and take your hands off the camera and you won't ruin your picture.

I just had opportunity to shoot a highway with the twilight as the background, I used a 15 second exposure with the camera balanced on the steering wheel of my car. They came out like nothing I've ever seen before!! Two thumbs up!!
