OYOA Pics from NM

[photofin]

Here are a few pics I captured while trying to make Bigfin and company look good on camera(not an easy task!)

2 great trips already this year.

Cool stuff. Quit complaining about how hard it is to make me look good. For $5,000 per day, you better work miracles.

Plastic surgery is far cheaper in the long run

Nice shots.

 

[Big Slick]

Way cool pics. Might want to ask Fin for a raise. $5,000 a day, in this economy?

Great shots. I'm a sucker for open shutter headlamp pictures. I'd like to see an OYOA headlamp shot over one of the bulls you guys get this fall. If myself and couple drunk skiers can figure it out, you guys shouldn't have a problem (especially only having to write symmetrical letters).

Great shots, photofin. Especially nice touch on the first one with Orion, The Hunter, overhead.

But I agree that at your rate, Big Fin should look like Tiffany.

ouch....now that everyone knows my day rate and seems to be okay with it feel free to start calling me for work. I'd be tempted to drop a few OYOA shoots if you are going to cough up that kind of cash!!!

[Sytes]

WOW! Amazing pics!

 

[The Hedgehog]

What's not to like about those shots!!? Wow!

Hey photofin, I'm curious how you got what I assume is the trail of a headlamp in that first photo without getting a trail of the person?

Way to cool, pic# 5 and pic# 7 are especially cool.

Oak...it was too dark for the person to show up, only the light sticks to the image where-ever it goes. It's actually kind of fun to mess around with....as mdunc8 mentioned. Just set your camera up on a t-pod(if you have a camera with manual settings) and hit the shutter button(which should keep your shutter open for 5-30 seconds for one image if dark enough out). If it's totally dark out then all you will see is the movement of the lights. If it's twilight such as the image above you will have a combo. Keeping the camera completely still is key.

Here is a loooong exposure similar with the movement of the stars.

Nice shot. I've done some of them before, but didn't think about the fact that the photo became more exposed over time (you can see the truck behind where the person walked).

[Spitz]

Awesome photos Troy! Thanks for posting them up, they're a pleasure to look at.
