My weak take on 2001 Space Odyssey and first attempts at light painting.

Zoomed in and out of LED's on a swivel computer chair.

Macro 1X con apilamiento de foco por control remoto del anillo de enfoque

 

Macro 1X by focus stacking using the focus ring remote control

 

2016-03-23_18-51-22 M=A R=8 S=4

 

Ingredientes:

 

-Nikon D600 + Nikor 105mm macro 1X

 

-Helicon Remote para control automático de la pila de foco mediante el anillo de enfoque (por medio de USB)

 

-Helicon Soft para apilamiento de foco (38 shots, Method A, R=8, S=4)

 

-Helicon lo puedes bajar a prueba durante 1 mes gratis, o una licencia para un año por 50€, controla casi todas las Nikon y Canon mediante USB. Existen otros proveedores de soft para stacking (apilamiento), p. ej. Zerene, ControlMyNikon o Canon, Combine Z, etc

 

-Opcional: impresora 3D (Up Plus 2) para la fabricación de focos, soportes, mesa de trabajo, etc. Puedes utilizar el sencillo 123D Design (free soft) para diseñar las piezas.

 

Receta:

 

-Montamos el bodegón con sujeto y fondo

 

-Lo iluminamos con 4 o 5 micro-focos de leds. Los focos se pueden diseñar e imprimir utilizando una impresora 3D y después montar los leds (alta luminosidad y 5300K), la alimentación es de 12vdc para grupos de 3 o 4 leds. La ventaja frente al uso de flash, es que se pueden dirigir los focos y componer la iluminación antes del disparo, además del volumen que se consigue jugando con la iluminación.

 

-Disparamos las fotografías utilizando, p. ej., Helicon Remote: Helicon controla el enfoque con el movimiento del anillo de enfoque antes de disparar cada foto, todo el proceso de toma de fotos es automático, se pueden ver videos en youtube

 

-Para 1X se necesitan de 20 a 100 fotos, según valor de f, focal utilizada y profundidad de campo necesaria, lo calcula el soft automáticamente. Se suele utilizar el punto dulce de la lente (normalmente en el entorno de f5.6) para optimizar los resultados

 

-Apilamos el stack de n fotografías utilizando Helicon Soft

 

-Utilizamos Lightroom o similar para eliminar “halos” y “artefactos”

 

-Una vez se tiene práctica, todo el proceso puede durar 30 min

Macro 1X by focus stacking using the focus ring control

 

How do you can do it :

 

Ingredients:

 

-Nikon D600 + 105mm macro nikor 1X

 

-Helicon Remote control for automatic focus stack using the camera focus ring (using USB)

 

-Helicon Soft Focus Stacking (56 shots, Method B, R = 8, S = 4)

 

-Helicon: You can download a free trial for 1 month, or a license for a year for € 50, it controls almost many Nikon and Canon via USB. There are other suppliers of soft for stacking, p. ex. Zerene, ControlMyNikon or Canon, Combine Z, etc.

 

-optional: 3D (Up Plus 2) printer to manufacture light bulbs, brackets, desk, etc. You can use the friendly 123D Design (free soft) for pieces designing.

 

Recipe:

 

-Ilumination with 4 or 5 micro-LED bulbs. The lighters can be designed and printed using a 3D printer and then mount the LED´s (high brightness and 5300K), the power is 12VDC for groups of 3 or 4 LEDs. The advantage over use of flash, is that you can positioning the lights and lighting make up before shooting, in addition to the volume to be achieved by playing with these lighting.

 

-Shot photographs using, p. eg Helicon Remote. Helicon controls the approach to the movement of the focus ring before the photo shot, the whole process of taking pictures is automatic, you can watch videos on youtube

 

-For 1X do you needed 20-100 photos, depending on value of f, focal and deep of field needed, automatically calculated by the soft. Often used the sweet spot of the lens (usually in the vicinity of f5.6) to optimize results

 

-Now we stack of shots using Helicon Soft

 

-We can use Lightroom or the like to remove "halos" and "artifacts"

 

-Once you have practice, the whole process can take 30 min

 

-And sorry my English, please.

Tonight Atlanta celebrated "Light Up the Beltway", a huge 'parade' of walkers carrying Lanterns of many types along an inner city loop (unfinished) trail which follows an old, abandoned railroad track. I was shooting handheld with my Nikon Df as the people walked by in the almost pitch black night carrying their lanterns. Most of them are lighted with battery powered LED's, such as this one. This image was exposed at ISO 10,000 in order to stop the blur from the swinging lantern in the hands of a walking individual

White LED are gradually replacing the traditional orange tungsten street lighting around Dublin.

While the orange tungsten gave a very nice warm colour, the newer LED's give off a very sharp effect, almost like a bright star.

Its all lights & traffic action at Swords at Dublin Bus route 43 terminus.

Da die LED‘s nur schwach leuchten und die orangene Farbe die Sicht zusätzlich erschwert, sieht man auf den ersten Blick gar nicht, dass dies ein Nachschuss ist.

Originally put up in 1933, along Commonwealth Avenue near its more famous cousin, the Citgo Sign in Kenmore Square, the Spectacular Shell sign today marks the Magazine Shell Station at the corner of Magazine Street and Memorial Drive since 1944 and today uses LED's rather than traditional neon. Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

The beaux arts style Canada Life building on University Ave in Toronto, topped by its iconic weather beacon, was built in 1929 - 1931 in the Great Depression. The beacon, recently retrofitted with LED's, provides updated weather forecasts four times daily. Canada Life has been selling insurance since 1847. Processed in PS.

This is a single frame out of a 25 second timelapse. This is 736 images lapsed over about 4 hours. What a crazy night this was...I left an hour and a half late to get here. I had to stop and fix my head light halfway there because it burnt out. My GPS took me on a goofy route not once but twice in which slightly set me back! After I finally got there I had to carry all my gear a couple hundred yards across open water to get to the island but I finally made it. And it absolutely didn't disappoint. What an insanely awesome time. There were quite a few people around there so we had to wait pretty late to get very creative but once they were gone it was ours! A fellow photography brought his LED lights out and we hit it with every color imaginable which you can see in the time lapse. Between the LED's, the stars, the Perseids and the milky way and Andromeda at the end I hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think in the comments below!!

Many thanks to the officers for letting me get the photos... And for putting the lights on for me :D

One of many Ford Mondeo Dog Units used by Essex Police. This one was seen parked on Waltham Road, Boreham after the officer stopped and spoke to me about standing over the bridge. Very nice officer who even let me take, and upload a photo of him with the car :)

A old shape Volvo V70 seen turning onto Cowdray Avenue after a wait for a suspect vehicle. Not sure of the outcome.

Apologies for the poor quality. Forgot to pack my 50-200mm lens so had to make do with the 18-55mm.

One of a handful of 11reg Essex Police Ford Mondeo Dog Units. I believe this one is based at Sandon Dog Base, Chelmsford.. It was seen here parked at Lakeside Bus Station, Thurrock.

Bronica ETR Si, 80mm f2.8, Kodak VC160 (what Portra used to be called).

 

Part of a series. This one was lit from inside by some LED's. Didn't try to hide the LED wire shadowlines on this take. I think it has multiple commentaries to offer.

 

Very little lightroom work. Conversion of negatives, cropping, and a bit of color balance and contrast.

Close up of a cheap but effective LED light chain for "Looking close on Friday"s theme of "Artificial Light" Its surprising how dusty things look when they are up-close.

 

Seen heading up The Mall, London.

Bit odd how this has a 'BN' plate instead of the usual 'BX' plates.

A Roads Policing Unit Volvo V70 seen responding along Cowdray Avenue, Colchester behind a Land Rover Discovery. This later parked up in a side road during a hunt for a vehicle. A lot of action all in a small space of time.

Apologies for the poor quality. Forgot to pack my 50-200mm lens so had to make do with the 18-55mm.

Trafalgar Square, London.

 

No more uploads today due to work tonight :(

One of SECAMS Neonatal Transport Ambulance's seen parked at the St Thomas Hospital, London.

One of 2 Neonatal Transport Ambulance's parked at St Thomas Hospital that day. The other was a Mercedes Sprinter run by East of England Ambulance Service.

Celebrating Christmas time.

 

See this photo for a behind-the-scenes view of the setup for this shoot.

 

Strobist/technical info:

This is a composite of a two-image focus stack. The cottage ornament was placed on a soft white mat. The background lights were created by light painting individually with the green, blue, and red LED's, respectively, of a Coast TX10 Quad Color flashlight onto an aluminum foil background over the span of a fifteen-second exposure. The foreground and subject were illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights, both fired through Neewer 24" x 24" softboxes slightly above camera level. The first speedlight was placed 85-degrees CL and fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄16 power. The second was placed 80-degrees CR and fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄2 power.

 

The SB900's were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X's.
