Lockdown Light Painting exercise with living room plants.
Looking for photography subjects. Where is my next model? What am I going to photograph?
Auf der Suche nach Fotomotiven. Wo ist mein nächstes Modell? Was soll ich fotografieren?
During a Lockdown situation, I kept running around my home to find things to Light Paint. Then you find a lot of plants and I started photographing them. But for some reason, I have not looked beyond the normal spectrum at them. For many years I have had a UV Flashlight. Not very expensive or very special, but I have one.
Während der Lockdown-Situation rannte ich immer wieder durch mein Haus, um Dinge zum LightPainten zu finden. Dann and ich in paar Pflanzen und ich habe angefangen sie zu fotografieren. Aber aus irgendeinem Grund habe ich sie nicht über das normale Spektrum hinaus betrachtet. Ja Ich habe seit vielen Jahren eine UV-Taschenlampe. Nicht sehr teuer oder sehr speziell, aber ich habe einen.
Last week when having a visitor (
Letzte Woche, als Ich dann Besuch (
When you just apply normal white light from an angle you can make the texture of the leaf visible. But it does not particularly pop in your face as something special.
The backside of the leaf seems to have the most fluorescent particles in the cell structure. When I shine the light from underneath to the top side it makes the cell walls reflect the UV light much more.
Die Rückseite des Blattes schien die meisten fluoreszierenden Partikel in der Zellstruktur zu haben. Wenn ich das Licht von unten nach oben strahlte, reflektierten die Zellwände das UV-Licht noch viel stärker.
Mixing the normal and UV light here and applying it in the right mix was giving me the best results. At least the shots that looked most amazing to me.
Das Mischen des normalen und des UV-Lichts hier und das Auftragen in der richtigen Mischung brachte mir die besten Ergebnisse. Zumindest die Aufnahmen, die für mich am coolsten aussahen.
What you see as the main featured shot is a 25-second single exposure light painting, with the camera set to ISO 1600 and the lens at F9 on the Sigma 105mm Macro lens. All these shots were taken with the Sigma 105mm Macro. Just like 
Was Ihr als Hauptaufnahme seht, ist ein 25-sekündige Einzelbelichtung Light Painting, bei dem die Kamera auf ISO 1600 und das Objektiv auf F9 am Sigma 105-mm-Makroobjektivs eingestellt ist. Alle diese Aufnahmen wurden mit dem Sigma 105mm Macro gemacht. Genau wie
I hope it was also inspirational. If you have more questions please do not hesitate. I am happy to share my knowledge.
