Night Photography: Music and Congress Hall

Dennis

The picture at the top was shot at Trave river and it shows our Music and Congress Hall (Musik und Kongress Halle Lübeck) which we also just call (MUK). As the name implies, it’s a building where conferences are held and often there are also concerts, parties and stuff like that. I had the camera on a tripod and it was a 30 seconds exposure at f/25 and ISO 800, as you can see with the milky river. The photo was shot with my 18-105mm kit lens at 35mm. Other You can also see some boats, they’re rarely used by … Continue reading Night Photography: Music and Congress Hall

Lighthouse Travemünde

Dennis

The photo above was shot before the one with the ship light trails that I uploaded yesterday. I want to store this one as well another version. The photo is taken in Germany at the Baltic Sea in Travemünde at dusk. I thought the photo is a little bit uneven, I tried to adjust it horizontally with Lightroom but no matter what I did, it always looks somewhat uneven. This either might be a visual illusion due to the uneven promenade, or that is lens bending (although I experienced that does only happen at the wide end of my lens). … Continue reading Lighthouse Travemünde

Long Exposure: Passing Ship In Travemünde

Dennis

As I mentioned in my earlier post, I was at the Travemünde Beach today and experimented a little bit with long shutter durations. The blue image in the gallery above is another photo I shot, the pink one is edited with Lightroom as I thought changing it to pink would work too. You can click on the images to enlarge them. To explain the scene, as mentioned in the title, there was a big ship passing and I captured the lights of it with the long shutter speed. The image is shot with 15 seconds shutter speed with an aperture … Continue reading Long Exposure: Passing Ship In Travemünde

My First Long Exposure Photo Outside In The Evening

Dennis

My mother and her husband asked me today if I would like to accompany them when they drive to the beach in Travemünde in the evening. That was a nice idea, I planned to use my tripod and to take some evening or night photos at some point anyway, and the beach is a perfect subject. I have read a lot about long exposure, for example when I tested long exposure at home, I also learned how to set up all things manually with my D7100. That means, I know already a little bit about the theory, it was time … Continue reading My First Long Exposure Photo Outside In The Evening

Learning A Few Things About Long Exposure During My First Attempt To Capture Lightnings

Dennis

I complained several times on my blog that the start of the summer in Germany was rather autumn-like, not because I dislike autumn, I am in fact a big fan of this kind of climate, but it’s not really the best weather for photography which is why I was unhappy with it. But then a few days ago the weather changed, it became tolerable warm. Now all of a sudden, the weather changed from autumn-like over tolerable warm to hot and humid. There is a heat wave in Germany right now, it’s maddening hot and humid since two days. It’s … Continue reading Learning A Few Things About Long Exposure During My First Attempt To Capture Lightnings
