Lingkaran Cahaya Matahari - Sun Halo
|
|
petikan dari Harian Metro, 30th Oct 2009
IPOH: Penduduk sekitar bandar raya ini gempar dan diselubungi ketakutan apabila menyaksikan satu lingkaran besar mengelilingi matahari di ruang udara, tengah hari semalam.
Kejadian aneh selama lebih sejam bermula jam 11 pagi hingga 12.30 tengah hari itu menarik perhatian penduduk terutama yang tinggal di sekitar Simpang Pulai dan Taman Ampang, dekat sini.
Kejadian itu berakhir kira-kira jam 12.30 tengah hari dengan lingkaran berwarna merah dikelilingi matahari beransur hilang perlahan-lahan sebelum ruang udara kembali seperti biasa diliputi gumpalan awan

| Quote: | Hi,
Thanks for your interest in my work. To answer your question. There is many process into
getting these images. First waiting for the right light..that is the most important part
of it. Also creating an interesting composition that is pleasing to the eye. Then the use
of tripod since all image taken in low light (dusk and dawn) it is a must. I have Lee
filters to balance the shot, Grad ND, Full ND to get extra exposure time and create that
dreamy effect that many think it is all photoshop. Polarizer to add an extra kick in
colors & remove glare, I always try to do all the work on the field..more pleasing than
spending hours in front of your cpu post processing them. Also long exposure shots (Over
5 sec) tend to have various color shifts in certain situations and can produce very
painting like results but in certain cases very pleasing results ( depending on your
taste). Once the photo is taken and imported into CS3. I will adjust contrast, clarity,
saturation, levels, curves, (to dodge and burn areas) and sharpness. Nothing will be
added or removed from any of my shots except from sensor dust and occasional scratches on
filters. I often take a few different exposures of the same scene in case I need to pull
details out of the shadows or retain blown highlights. I know many use HDR software to
achieve or merge different exposures but I would just do it manually in PS where I feel
it needs it. I try not to get that HDR look which crosses the line to looking natural.
Hope this helps..
Best regards Steve. |

Experiment with long exposure
|
|
i need a shutter release cable to achieve much much longer and better exposure
why wasting time for this long exposure thingy? -> are you asking?
since i have nothing else to do..."seriously"
i manually hold the shutter button for about 100seconds plus
but if using shutter release cable i can extend the exposure lot more and have the pic sharp
wat i imagine in these shots are blueish sky as if its shot in daytime...i will realized that dream
