Note: all the photos here are smaller versions. Clicking on them gets you to a larger one.
This is probably one of the best photos I've ever taken:
It took a bit over an hour: 20 minutes each way to get to the orchard, about 10 minutes to set up and then just under 42 minutes to do the shot itself. Clicking on the image will get you the link with exposure details, film settings, etc., but clicking here will get you a version that's a bit larger.
I decided to share this photo for a few reasons, but primarily because it's pretty damned cool.
I posted this one a few nights ago:
This was a 17 minute, 52 second, exposure. If you are at all familiar with astronomy in the Northern U.S., you'll actually be able to recognize a specific and well known constellation in this shot. Anyone able to tell me what it is?
This...
is a 7 minute, 22 second exposure. I used Christmas lights attached to a pole, turning them on and off to create a tunnel pattern. I used to think 7 minutes was a really long exposure. Not so much now :)
I'm sharing these photos mostly as a way to just engage with the community and as a kind of open photography thread to talk about photos, photo technique, etc. I'm focusing on black and white today just because it's what I'm into.
