Back on Hive
After a break of more than 7 months, I am back here on the Hive Blockchain. During a visit to Berlin, motivated me to become active here again.

Light Painting Adventure in the Berlin Area
A few months ago I had the opportunity to spend a whole weekend in Berlin. Sven Gerard invited me for a light painting session in and around Berlin. The first night we went to an old abandoned bridge.
Vor ein paar Monaten hatte ich die Gelegenheit ein ganzes Wochenende in Berlin zu verbringen. Sven Gerard lud mich ein für eine Lightpainting Session in und um Berlin. In der ersten Nacht gingen wir zu einer alten, verlassenen Brücke.
This picture was taken by Sven during location scouting in daylight.

After a "walk" of about 2 km with way too much equipment, we finally reached the bridge. I was very impressed by the construction. The efforts were worth it and we started with the first light painting bridge's base.
Nach einem "Spaziergang" von cirka 2 km mit viel zu viel Equipment, erreichten wir endlich die Brücke. Ich war sehr beeindruckt von dem Bauwerk. Die Anstrengungen haben sich gelohnt und wir starteten mit dem ersten Light Painting am Fuß der Brücke.
You can find a really great article about the night at the bridge and what Sven has already done there here, if you are interested.

The Bridge Part 1
How we made this shot? (in the title)
First we created the light figure in the middle with the camera rotation technique. While the camera was covered and kept running, we then climbed up to a second tripod on the bridge. The camera was mounted on the previously aligned tripod and I placed myself in the scene as the model while Sven illuminated the bridge. Job done.
Als erstes haben wir die Lichtfigur in der Mitte mit der Kamera Rotationstechnik erstellt. Während die Kamera abgedeckt war und weiter lief, sind wir dann zu einem zweiten Stativ auf die Brücke geklettert. Die Kamera wurde auf dem vorher ausgerichteten Stativ montiert und ich habe mich als Model in die Szene gesetzt, während Sven die Brücke ausgeleuchtet hat. Job erledigt.

Red bridge
This picture was taken at the end of a creative night. Sven made himself available as a model while I illuminated the bridge with the KDlitker E6 (red). I'm not completely satisfied with the result, because you can see the light cone of the torch at the end. But I really like the red of the lamp.
Dieses Bild ist am Ende einer kreativen Nacht entstanden. Sven hat sich als Model zur Verfügung gestellt, während ich die Brücke mit der 🔦 KDlitker E6 (rot) ausgeleuchtet habe. Ich bin nicht ganz zufrieden mit dem Ergebnis, da man am Ende den Lichtkegel der Taschenlampe sieht. Aber dafür gefällt mir das Rot der Lampe sehr.😜
Thanks to Sven for a really impressive night with lots of light and fun! It was an honour.😎
All images were taken in several steps, during a longexposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing. We love pure lightpainting!
What is light painting?
Light painting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
