those are all pretty cool shots.

[soosh]

use 400 or 800 speed film. I buy mine from B&H.

There’s really not a whole lot to give tips about – each one is pretty individual, really.

damn damn damn I want that 645

[soosh]

are “I”s also fair game?

I was going to do a whole Stick-Of-Butter-As-Icarus parable this week, but having yesterday off as a holiday screwed me up and I didn’t realize it was Wednesday until it was too late.

I shot mine with a 100mm macro. Just followed them around and got lucky.

crazily, there’s really not a lot of noise in the image.

I managed to get a good one for this contest Saturday night after my radio show. I set the camera up in the backyard to get a 30-minute exposure of the stars spinning above the forest. Stayed up extra late to make sure it all went well. Only I forgot to turn the ISO down from the framing shot at 3200. So I got what looks all the world like a daylight scene with the sky completely blown out white.

never heard of them, but their photoslits look very interesting. nice find!

I don’t think so, no. Like I don’t think you can set it to take a 1 minute exposure, then a 2 minute, then a three minute, but maybe I haven’t delved into it enough. I got it mostly to be able to set up for a set exposure without having to constantly watch my watch while I’m sitting out in the dark.

However, if you set it up to take six exposures and set up auto-bracketing on the camera, maybe that would work, I don’t know. I’ve never really messed with auto-bracket stuff.

I think I agree about the tree leaves. I’d probably use the healing tool to get rid of them.

[soosh]

u-man, your night shot is awesome. did you light the foreground at all, or is that from the moon or a utility light?

[soosh]

woo, I had some taken on some farmland after all.

[soosh]

I would certainly think so.

[soosh]

well I went by the salvation army thrift store today looking for fisher price characters, but no luck. I guess the scenes from Southeast Alaska’s squid ranching and moss farming world will have to wait for another day.
