The Domed Kingdom

NIKON Z 7 + NIKKOR Z 14-30mm f/4 S @ 20 mm, 169 + 153 + 30 + 95 sec at f/5.6, ISO 100

Gerry and I headed out into Lane Cove National Park for a little light painting refresher

You’ve already seen our last two shots of the night, so here is one of the much earlier works

Here we’re doing a first tester of one of the domed things we havn’t done in ages, along with Gerry’s nice dark green EL wire on the ground. My green EL was much brighter but much more flouro limey in colour

We “could” have done all of this in one take but alas we ended up just doing the various tester bits and no “final take”. So I had to merge the bits in post (which is a pain and why we’d rather just get it right in camera in the field). The result is a blend of four exposures – one for the dome, one for the EL and two for some lighting in the trees

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger. To see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer click any of the images.
