Some great examples of low light photography in this challenge. I am really impressed with what everyone entered. I have a question though. What images really stand out for you all as good examples of low light?

Kort : The law light style  is to make a photo without flash and only with the natural low light in the espace or room with a soft light... The best condition for to take this style of picture is the night. : http://www.blackphoto.com/tutorials/lesson_night.asp or

Thanks for that link Valou. Those points at the bottom definitley explain how to get good low light photos, but I was wondering more what makes a GOOD low light photo.

for me, the more best is the photo of the theme it's just the low light of the candle...

Thanks again Valou, that is valuable info. But as I am trying to get across (anyone speak French), I am more curious about the subject and mood rather than the technique and what others think makes an interesting low light photo.

Hi Heres a low light shot of the Yarra River in Melbourne, Australia taken during the Commonwealth Games earlier this year when we had lots of coloured lights around town. I really love low light shots with night lights and glowing buildings like Valouchufys ones!! Cheers Lou

Ok, maybe just one more of the famous night fish at the Commonwealth Games, Yarra River, Mlebourne, Australia.

Kort... the image you posted and the ones Littlejock  have above are fine examples of what I think are good low light. You both left  the details of  the subject in tact, and also brought to eye the mood as close to what the real view was when taken. How I can explain this better is that, sometimes you want to take a photo and keep it exactly as you saw it, even though a camera can sometimes lose the details such as your wood grain. Then  the light from window can wash out the scene if not exposed right. Yours did not.
 Definitely the older buildings or antique styles seem to go best with low light.
Just on Sunday I tried a similar shot in a barn, and it  was a disaster.

Now Valou...your example of low light tutorials are excellent. You also brought out the details of the flame,while adding a very artistic approach to it. You also  chose to make the door opening one in B&W which is appealing.

 What is interesting and captures my eye on Littlejocks  photos is how the shadows  work in favour.

Yep...you got them in under the wire. Those are some bright lights! Terrific captures everyone and super participation. Here's one last one from me, an old washroom. I'm trying to decide wether or not to put it in my gallery.

Hello again.. in this last days of this thread. I back again and I´m so happy some talk about my pics.. and I decide to show how was the light i used in my earlier photos. I close the gate of the barrca as you see now with this chair and only this low light.. with for my cam.. the time was open the aperture was betwen 20 seconds until 30 in this last with ISO of 100.  ONly with this little ray of light and was around 13:30 hours in Spain. 

About the last question.. I think .. I love specially when create some special mood and atmosphere.. and some times is in the night and others... at day.. but low light create also a interesting atmospher. Only need a tripod of course... I like this mood inside the barraca... 

I have another strange pic... I took when forgot  the aperture is open and turn 90 degree the tripod during this time (around 20 seconds and still was working 10 seconds more).. The effect was so strange... and maybe i post in gallery..

Ocotillo at moonset. Nikon D-100, ISO 200, Nikor 80 to 200 Zoom at 200mm, f-16, 2 seconds.

I hope this qualifies for low light. Shot during the morning twilight (5:30 AM) from calcite canyon in the Anza-Borrego Desert of Southern California.

It does look better larger, is there a place here at Renderosity to post a larger version? If so, where and how?


TwoPynts ( ) posted Wed, 29 November 2006 at 3:06 PM

Alpha, it sure does quality and is a wonderful image. You could post it in your gallery: http://market.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/browse.php?user_id=45376 It would be a wonderful opening photo. Just click the upload button and follow the directions.

I'm with Diane on this one, it has been fun, and I think great participation too.
