Night Photography

that is simply wonderful. really, really well done.

Thanks. I shot that with a handheld M6 at 1/15 of a second! I still don't know how the lights blur didn't streak across that face...

Great shot Chris! I tried the same technique myself, earlier this year (except on a tripod):

Wow that ferris wheel is awesome. Love how the lights formed those little squares! I assume you used a much longer exposure than I did to get that effect? I used 1/15 for mine, cause thats about as long as I can usually handhold. Didn't have my tripod.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the nice words! Yes, I think it must have been 30 seconds, which from memory is the longest shutter speed on the R8 that I used. Obviously the person in front was using a long shutter speed on her shot too! Yours is pretty darn good for 1/15 hand held!

Here are a few older shots by me in Shanghai at night:

"card game" M6 | 50 Lux ASPH | TriX @3200

"the pub scene" M6 | 50 Lux ASPH | TriX @3200

"vehicles" R-D1 | 50 Lux ASPH | ~ISO 3200−6400

"trapped" M6 | 28 Cron ASPH | TriX @3200

A leaf, trapped in a lamp in fall, last year in a Shanghai backyard.

@ cnphoto , that newstand photograph is outstanding. What film was that?

@two23 / Kent; are either of those shot with that 9K flash?

@ cnphoto , that newstand photograph is outstanding. What film was that?

thanks, Tri-X (Arista Prem 400) shot at 1250/1600 and dev'd in Rodinal 1:50, 32 minutes at roughly 15-17 degC with a VERY gentle agitation cycle (10 inversions initially, then 5 inversions every 5 minutes).

It's my new 'go-to' film and dev combo, for 3200 I increase time to a little over 40 minutes. there has been a few threads on here about this combo.

Here's a bigger (poor quality) scan.

Christopher, I like the last two very much for framing and detail!
