Rotate The Thistle - Light Painting on HIVE

CAMERA ROTATION PHOTOGRAPHY

Yesterday I had the impulse to bring some order into the chaos in my warehouse. Some dried thistles fell into my hands. I had taken some pictures with them some time ago, so I wanted to throw them away as a first impulse. Then I thought it would be better to take a few more camera rotation pictures than to continue cleaning up.

Gestern hatte ich die Anwandlung etwas Ordnung ins Chaos in meinem Lager zu bringen. Mir fielen einige vertrocknete Disteln in die Hände. Mit diesen hatte ich vor einiger Zeit schon einige Bilder gemacht, deshalb wollte ich die Disteln im ersten Impuls wegwerfen. Dann dachte ich, dass es besser ist noch ein paar Camera Rotation Bilder zu machen als weiter aufzuräumen.

It took me a few attempts to reach this result. Either too much light or too little. In some attempts, the angles did not fit when rotating.

At first, I had illuminated the thistles with the Emisar D4V2. I rotated the camera around the optical axis in 9 steps during the exposure. For the second round, I then lit black glass fibres with the Lightpainters torch from Light Painting Paradise in flash mode. First I had attached a blue colour filter between the torch and the glass fibres. For the final result I decided to use green.

Bis zu diesem Ergebnis hatte ich einige Versuche gebraucht. Entweder zu viel Licht oder zu wenig. Bei einigen Versuchen haben die Winkel bei der Drehung nicht gepasst.

Zuerst hatte ich die Disteln mit der Emisar D4V2 beleuchtet. Ich habe während der Belichtung die Kamera in 9 Schritten um die optische Achse gedreht. Für die zweite Runde habe ich dann schwarze Glasfasern mit der Lightpainters Taschenlampe von Light Painting Paradise im Blitzmodus beleuchtet. Zuerst hatte ich einen blauen Farbfilter zwischen Taschenlampe und Glasfasern befestigt. Für das endgültige Ergebnis habe ich mich dann für grün entschieden.

Here you can see the penultimate version. I actually like the picture quite a lot. But I wanted to make another version with softer bokeh. For this reason, I turned the focus to infinity and opened the aperture to 5.6. Before that, I had reduced the brightness of the Lightpainters torch by a few levels.

Hier seht ihr die vorletzte Version. Das Bild gefällt mir eigentlich ganz gut. Ich wollte aber noch eine Version mit weicherem Bokeh machen. Aus diesem Grund habe ich beim finalen Bild den Fokus auf unendlich gedreht und die Blende auf 5,6 geöffnet. Zuvor hatte ich die Helligkeit der Lightpainters Taschenlampe um einige Stufen reduziert.

At first I had taken some versions without the bokeh of the glass fibres.

Zuerst hatte ich einige Versionen ohne das Bokeh der Glasfasern aufgenommen.

This is what the setup for the pictures looked like. Not exciting at all, is it?

So sah das Setup für die Bilder aus. Überhaupt nicht aufregend, oder?

Enough for today. I'll go and tidy up some more... so maybe. Unless I come across something interesting again.

Genug für heute. Ich geh mal weiter aufräumen... also vieleicht. Es sei denn, mir fällt wieder etwas Interessantes in die Hände.

WHAT IS LIGHT PAINTING?

Light painting is a unique form of art. The darkness is illuminate by the artist with diverse light sources and light traces are paint into the picture with various light tools. Various techniques are use, such as camera rotation or other movements of the camera during the exposure. The creative possibilities are almost unlimited. All the pictures were taken during one single exposure. Apart from denoising, sharpening, cutting and possibly adjusting the white balance, the pictures are not processed on the computer.

Amazing how many different looks you can get with this, great work. Really enjoy the symmetry.

Thanks. It is easy to get a different result by changing the colour, the direction of the camera, the steps of the rotation or by adding another layer of light.

It's funny because when i was looking at the images i could hear them in the sounds of lightsabers. hahaha I think the thistles really added something extra.

But I think I throw them away now. Maybe I better do some pics with fresh flowers next time.

Aufräumen müsste ich auch mal 🥴
Was man nicht alles aus so einem vertrockneten Ding machen kann. Hübsch geworden. 🤗

Aufräumen ist völlig überbewertet. 🤣

Ja schon, in deinem Fall kamen aber ein paar schöne Bilder bei heraus. Das wäre ja auch meine Motivation, wenn ich aufräumen würde 🙄

Great rotations, love the use of the bokeh, especially for the 1st one 👌🏻❗️
