Very nice images. As a lightpainter with years of experience I have to say these only touch a very small part of the magic light painting encompasses. Also most light painters strive to do their photos in a single exposure, but that is more of a challenge we put on ourselves not a rule. And it is amazing to know and see that even those images with the milkyway can be done in a single exposure. Best tipp is use old analogue lenses. Thre quality is quite often amazing and you can change aperture in the middle of the exposure. So can get the foreground with a high aperture so get a large field of depth then once the foreground is done open the lens for the stars.

All very relevant and as enjoyable as ever, Richard. However, what I believe nightscape beginners have most trouble with is the actual movement of the torch over the subject. It would help if you'd produce a video of you light-painting a car or truck, with the sole purpose of showing exactly what is being done with the hand holding the torch. It might be difficult lighting that, but I'm sure it'd be worthwhile for many of your subscribers. Oh, and by the way, the first time I contributed to this show you had 15K subscribers and you now have 64K. Well done old trout! Shows just how meaningful your videos and images are.

Richard, let's say you are making an image with a foreground object and the milky way as a background and you want both the milky way amd the lightpainted subject to be in focus. When you get the base exposure, which is dark (in order to add the light painted images) where do you focus? On the subject or on the sky? Great videos, keep up the good work! Your lightpainted techniques are vey inspirational and the result is great!
@nightscapeimages.richard2 жыл бұрын
Hi Kostas. It depends on how far the foreground subject is from the camera. More recently I've been stopping down the aperture when light painting my foregrounds and this has the added advantage of increasing the depth of field and making the focus sharper. So as a general rule, if the foreground is pretty close to the camera you'll need to re-focus on it after shooting the background stars .. . but if the foreground is further away, then you may not need to. If you check the Photopills webpage it gives an indication of where your closest infinity focus distance is. See here: www.photopills.com/calculators/dof-table I discuss this in a number of my videos. See these: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqK8l2WtlKd0h5o or this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3jcn4qog92nqZI or here at about 30:50 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGbNipd3rLmjh5I

I haven't really paid attention for this in your older videos but, I was wondering what your histogram looks like when light painting. Is it towards the black side of the histogram about how it would be for your milky way shots so that the 2 exposures are close or should it be exposed more like in the middle of the histogram?
@nightscapeimages.richard2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching Carl. Generally my histograms are always way over to the left hand side. The majority of my light painted images are done in sections .. so it's never the whole image that's lit at the same time. Even these one's which are single exposures are off to the left. You have to remember that there is a lot of shadow in these night images which skew the histogram to the dark side.

Amazing episode, Richard. Those images are awesome. I would like to ask you a question, how far would you say we should be from a city to avoid the light pollution to ruin a milky way picture if we shoot in the direction of the city? Thanks a lot for your magnificent work!

It all depends on the size of the city, but If you're going to be shooting back towards that city I'd suggest a 2 hour drive.

Even a 2 hour drive isn't enough for a large urban area. :(
