p.2 #1 · #322 Playing With Light


Thanks, Yakim! I'm glad you like it but sorry that there is too much blue for you. In my conception for the shot, it was more about the light trails and their pattern than about the shot of me. Maybe I overdid it. Oh well...

Warm regards,

Endre

It's a really nice pic but I wonder if a shorter exposure time would make it better. The idea is great but there's a bit too much blue to my liking.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Thanks, John. I'm delighted that you like it. I tried to get a lot of movement in it so I had to play something pretty fast. As it is, i tried only to stay toward the upper and middle part of the bow so it would stay closer to being within the frame.

All the best,

Endre

That is a interesting thought - this is a great shot, but I wonder what it would look like with just one smoth line in only one or two circles.

Regardless, I love how this shot shows the fairly large range that the bow can travel...

Thanks, Mike, my friend! Your kind words and sincere appreciation for my shots is always very gratifying. I guess we have a mutual admiration society going.

Warm regards,

Endre

Thanks so much, Dave. I'm really happy that you like it. As to keeping still for that long, I used a very large vice.

C'mon, Dave, this should be an easy one for you to figure out. If i tell you, you'll kick yourself for not thinking of it.

All best wishes,

Endre

Really cool image. How did you keep the head still for 25 seconds?

Thanks so much, Julien, my old friend! I'm so glad you like it. There should be some music to go with it, huh?

All best wishes,

Endre

Hello Endre,

Nicely done! What a great effect. This would have worked for the last WA too. One can "see" the music your are playing. What a novel take on the WA.

Well done, friend, and I'll guess Elgar just for the heck of it!

I'd guess you were playing in a pitch dark room with the flash firing just before the shutter closed.

Endre,
What a great idea. I love the movement - it gives the feel of a fast-paced piece.
Only one other thought: For that kind of intense playing, I expected your facial expression to be a bit more... expressive. The expression seems a bit bland for all the movement of the bow.
As always, though, I learn from your shots. Nice job!

My guess is you took it with a flash first, then brought up the violin... cool shot, I love when you can capture motion

Awesome shot, I think I know how you took it and think the lighting and timing was perfect well done.

Nice long & multi-exposure, Endre. LEDs are fun, and I like the concept, and image. Though I don't know if playing a piece was necessary - my guess is its one of Mozart's divertimento.
