This is good stuff, Astrid. I like your night photography!
Picturit: Thanks Martin, it was so much fun to do, we (15, with camera's) were on this road were a lot of busses drove by, I almost was run down by a taxi....I was standing on his parking place....
Astrid.
Cool movement, Astrid.
Picturit: Thanks Jewlya, it was so much fun to see what works and does not....
Astrid.
Een geweldige artistieke nacht- foto! The workshop must have been very interesting and creative! I'm glad to read the Dutch word: LIJN BUS!
Picturit: Thank you Philine, yes this was the LIJN BUS Utrecht station, I think you will see them on Saterday!! That workshop was so much fun, een mevrouw kwam naar me toe en vroeg me wat we aan het doen waren, ik zei dat we een workshop nachtfotografie hadden, maar ik voegde daar aan toe; eigenlijk mag ik het niet vertellen maar wij zijn van de politieacademie en we oefenen in het fotograferen van te-hard-rijders....
Astrid.
Oh well! At least you have your gear, and should fing plenty of things to shoot on the long walk home!
I really like this image, Astrid.
Picturit: I was taught never run after a bus or a man, there will always be another.....
I am pleased you like this picture. Astrid.
You will be fine mijn vriend just stick your leg out to the next passing car and you will be ok
Great movement, but well controlled. I love the lights in this shot. You really had a great time I can tell and the workshop was a joy for us too,just look at the results WONDERFUL
Picturit: You know what I was wearing...so no problems here
Astrid.
Excellent - now you are into the type of movement pictures I like. You can even see someone in the bus watching you. It all convey that 'moment in time - forever lost' that I get when travelling by bus or train.
Joining groups and clubs like this is also very enriching - learn about the camera and other people. Mevrouw Konstabel.
Picturit: Excuse me for the late reply, Louis thank you for your kind words, this was indeed very learningfull to be with a lot of other photographers to exchange thoughts and ideas, I cannot help it, when I have a great time with others I always have to joke around.....I had to smile at my new tittle, Mevr. Konstabel....
Astrid.
Very nice, I always like pictures that "paint with color" and this picture certainly does this.
Picturit: Excuse me for the late reply, I am pleased you like this one, I had several taken but this one I liked best.
Astrid.
I like the variety of colours of lights.
Picturit: There were some cars too and the bus had that great green sign in front of the vehicle...it turned out rather well.
Astrid.
Another great night shot Astrid. I like the subtle mouvement effect. Don't worry about having missed your bus, just give me a ring and I'll come and pick you up immediatly!
Picturit: You are too kind, I knew I could rely on you, thank you for your kind words.
Astrid.
This is brilliant Astrid, and so clear. It's making me want to go out there and do some night work (of the photography kind!) I love the sense of movement.
Ingrid
Picturit:
Thank you for your kind words. Astrid.
Really well done ... and the length of shutter speed creates a great end result. richard
Picturit: The bus was just leaving after its stop, I am pleased you like it.
Astrid.
This is great Astrid
Picturit: Thanks Chantal.
Astrid.
Mooi zo met die strepen!
Picturit: Bedankt Robbie, ik ben begonnen toen de bus stil stond en ging optrekken, de meesten lieten de bus voorbij gaan, ook gave foto's hoor.
Astrid.

Picturit: Well I am more happy it did MISS ME....other wise there would not have been any more Astridimages....
Astrid.

Picturit: Thanks Idak and thanks for visiting.
Astrid.
This is a super picture Astrid. I keep saying I must do some night stuff...but I go to bed so early
Picturit: I can try to keep you awake..
Astrid.
Great technique here, Astrid. But I am concerned at how you got home...presumeably you did.
I see that you Dutch spell Bus, Brasserie and Restaurant in English! Bravo. Slechts een grapje van de cursus en kunt u niet boos op mijn opmerking. Hartelijke groeten uit Tsjaad
Picturit: I did get home eventually..
and thank you for your kind words. Astrid.
Terrific title!
This is special, really like it. You take on good experiments, I need to do that more.
Picturit: Ruth, that is the most fun of the photography, I never thought I was able to do these shots when I bought this camera last Mai...it is FUN, it really is, don't be afraid of some experiments...it might turn out just great
Thank you for your kind words. Astrid.
Lovely night shot Astrid. Did you use a Tripod?
Picturit: Aussie, all these night shot were taken with a tripod and a remote control to make sure that there is absolutely no motion in the camera and tripod...it can be done with the selftimer too.
I do hope you have a great time in China, please show us some great pictures when you return... Astrid.
well you might have missed the bus Astrid but you sure caught a belter of a capture, superb stuff for sure
Picturit: Tim, thank you so much for you kind compliment, most appreciated,
Astrid.
Also one word to say : MAGNIFICENT !!!
You are the Queen of the Night !!
Picturit: Your words make me blush, thank you so much, I must admit that I love the night-lights...
Astrid.
You are really covering the night shot spectrum Astrid, well done.
Picturit: Thanks Brian for your kind words, it was so much fun to share all kinds of information with others.
Astrid.
This is also a nice shot, my workshop photo will come which the time. I have some other photo's of a museum on my computer who are waiting.
Picturit: I will find it some time, I thought is was nice to post at once, the other posts can wait...
Astrid.
I like the lights! Are all lights for bus?
Picturit: Thank you, yes all the lights but the red ones, they came from a car that went from right to left.
Astrid.
Oh dear - I hope you didn't have to walk Astrid!
Picturit: Thank you Chris for your concern, I had my car in the parking-garage, a few blocks away..
Astrid.
Very nice picture you made the good choice : you shot the bus instead of taking it !
I hope you got a taxi ...;-)
Picturit: To be nonest, I walked to the parking-garage where my car was....I am pleased you like this picture.
Astrid.
This night shot is so evocative.
Picturit: Thank you for your kind words, I am pleased you like it.
Astrid.
I can't tell you how much fun I've just had reading all the comments and your replies, Astrid. I've been sitting here laughing on the floor. What a great way to start the day...with your night photo!
Picturit: Ginnie, a day without laughter is a day without being alive, I did have fun with the night shots, it is not easy, I admit and I am not content that fast, it has to be perfect as you know, which is almost impossible, I am so glad that I made your day start of in the best way...laughing...bedankt voor je lieve woorden...
Astrid.
Great long time exposure shot.
Picturit: Thank you for your nice words, I am pleased you like it.
I tried to leave a comment on your fantastic blog, but I was not able to. Astrid.
quality! really like these movement shots at night. the yellow words at the top are like the opening sequence of the original superman
Picturit: Thank you for your compliment, it was really fun to do this workshop.
Astrid. |
