, 20 sec f/8.0, ISO 3200, tripod.

foresta di Rifreddo (PZ) - allora, finalmente dopo un'elaborazione "lunga e tempestosa" riesco a postare questo scatto, frutto di tanti tentativi sia da un punto di vista degli scatti veri e propri, sia da un punto di vista "teorico". come fare a immortalare uno degli spettacoli più entusiasmanti che esistono in natura, cioè le lucciole che sciamano? nel sottobosco vicino alla mia casa di montagna (un luogo isolato e fortunatamente per nulla inquinato) la "materia prima" ad inizio estate non manca :) il problema è tradurla in fotografia. dopo un sacco di prove ad orari diversi e con sfondi diversi sono finalmente riuscito (credo) a ottenere un risultato gradevole e soprattutto molto simile a ciò che si vede quando le lucciole iniziano a danzare. lo scatto è così composto: per lo sfondo uno scatto di 2" f/16 a ISO 100 verso le 8 e mezza di sera, con sole appena tramontato e luce ancora presente, sottoesposto poi in PP per dare il senso di atmosfera buia ma lasciando leggibili tutte le zone. poi una bella oretta di attesa (con macchina su cavalletto sempre nella stessa posizione) fin quando le lucciole non hanno iniziato ad uscire: di qui in poi sono 10 scatti da 20" l'uno a ISO 3200 e f/8 per cogliere quante più lucciole possibile; necessaria un'alta sensibilità perchè essendo intermittenti l'alone luminoso rimane impresso meglio. ho provato anche con altre combinazioni più "soft" con gli ISO, ad esempio ISO 800 e 2 minuti di esposizione, ma ogni singolo puntino risultava molto più "spento". alla fine ho unito tutto con le maschere di livello. questo è quanto, spero vi piaccia :) - 20 mm., 11 files RAW processati e miscelati con CS5 #NightPhotos #Notturno

Thanks for the explanation Dexter.

My remains a subjective view. If you feel satisfied with the result, just fine. ;-)

Hello Dexter.

a good image for me.
is d `other hand, the taste unnatural described Beckerwins (beyond the successful interpretation of Max57 on the front page:-D)

in my view ... I'd be in the middle ie:
in the woods at that `now I do not see the color of straw, but even if I recognize the details, the tones are probably the coldest, tending to the shadows and gray.
Alternatively it might be interesting to plunge much in the dark and look for (value) a last glimmer maybe the only trunk in the foreground, or just over the treetops if touched by the last rays, or do not know ...
hello.

(You should not need to add that this is the my opinion about what I considI was a bell `s approach photo . nothing more)

superBaf first honored your input :-) you, Lucky, Eru are among the "interpreters" I appreciate most is the side "visionary" for the technical and construction.

having said that, I try to draw the "genesis" (parolone!:-D), which led to the result. the day was one of those classic summer from overcast, leaden, and very humid and muggy, one of those days as "impending apocalypse" for instance, when the sky especially at sunset take over the typical shades of yellow and highly saturated (you can see well in particular background on the left: the mown area was the only one without tree cover and filtered again a lot of this particular light. appearance very "hot" in the background is due to this situation of light, in post for the background over to underexpose a lot more I did not. pagli egin the foreground I can assure you that I saw exactly :-)

could alternatively be interesting to cast largely in the dark and look for (highlight) a last glimmer maybe the only tree in the foreground, or just over the treetops if touched by the last rays

as regards the other hand do not deny that the original intent was exactly what you described: leave the background much darker and make "guessed" are some small details (the trunk in the foreground, the rock right in the middle image , the line of the background) but after trying for anything I did not like the result: the fireflies were not "acclimatized" I do not know how to explain, but the whole thing gave me the idea of ??being a little "exciting". : Fconfuso:

I eventually opted per this solution because it was the one I sent the snapshot of the best moments ;-) but as I said of course I intend to continue to experiment (next year:-D)

In a fairy tale are the fireflies that light up the scene. Consistency perfect for me! ;-)

ohibò. Eru is good with his comics, but above all do not want to stay close to me (he does not like the smell of the road:-D), Lucky has the balls square in the landscape, while I there are always applied very little. you get in trouble I'm co `cocktail :-)

Complimentissimi to the captured image (which is not common!) And the tenacity with which you designed and achieved the result. At last, the fireflies have been immortalized! BRAVISSIMO! :-P

really nice picture .. :)
I tried anchio to make a shot like that ...
www.juzaphoto.com/galleria.php?l=it&cat=singola&t=181579
but I used an ISO too low (800) and was not able to capture the flashes of fireflies for good ... try again the prox years following your path ... :) Thank you ...

Adolfo Kappa and thank you for the feedback :-)

@ Kappa: I just saw your e is not bad :-) testing I've done so many and in the end I decided to set more shooting to give a tone more "fabulous" for ISO ;-) I recommend: 3200 (or even more) just for the fireflies, for the background, even if dark, you should still take a photo at lower ISO because if not come out too much noise and hot pixels (and removed post is a bore)
