A lot of engineers who programmed our camera and phones tell us that there ’s only one veracious room to disclose a photo . But for this week’sShooting Challenge , you charter matter into your own hired man , and flooded these frames with “ too much ” light .
Winner: Lambo
This first appearance should make any Jalops that have ended up here felicitous .
I had the chance for this stroke while attending the Lone Star LeMans at the Circuit of the Americas this weekend . It was still sunup when I came across this car in the paddock and the sun was lighting the front of the car nicely . However I wanted a decent guess of the tailpipe and locomotive inside the rear of the machine , and ended up with an overexposed screen background that highlighted the auto nicely .
This racing Lamborghini was part of the Super Trofeo North America one make race that was patronize the primary WEC wash . Every ticket to the effect was a paddock pass as well , so I was able to get right up to the cars and relish everything about them . Attending a race , specifically one with an candid paddock , take a crap for an incredible weekend and I encourage you to experience it for yourself if you’re able to .
Sony A77 , 35 mm , f/13 , 1/160 sec . , ISO 2000 Edited very slightly via PhotoScape .

Afterlife
I was walking in nearby burial site one night and saw this statue . I did some experiments with long exposures and resolve to go straight overboard . wax light in the groung gave nice ethereal foggy spark to the impression . I shot it with Fujifilm x100 t , 23 mm , f/2,8 and 58,0 sec .

Fountain
This is the outflow on Market Street in downtown Maysville , KY . I scud this in manual mood on my Pentax K-5 IIs with a 35 mm Pentax - A lens .
I decide to try a longer exposure to get some blur in the body of water . The fluorine - block was set to to 8 and I gradually increased the shutter speed until parts of the statue and most of the background buildings were shove off out . This was shot hand-held , but I was prosperous enough to stave off camera shake .
For editing , I dropped the blacks in Lightroom to increase contrast while boosting the shadows to maintain the gamy key smell . Then , I converted to black and white and supply a subtle split up tone .

Glow Fence
in conclusion got a DSLR and trying to figure out how to use it and what all these background do . I remember seeing shooting challenge no Giz so I thought it would be a good agency to determine about my camera and it ’s place setting . A new fence was recently put up and I was tooling around out of doors today and noticed how the light was amount through the planks , I cerebrate it would make for a good shot for this challenge , I care how the planks seem to get lighter left to right and top to bottom , make it seem like there ’s a mystery behind the fence . I set the camera on the ground with a small tripod and tried out several shots . I like this one best , details about the shot are below .

Buds
The image was capture with a Nokia 635 , and the photo was manually adjust to get the overexposed effect . The only postprocessing was done to the required pixel dimensions .
I used the overexposed gist to blur the background knowledge , and to focus the simulacrum on the two bozo . This was captured on a belated summer day down at the North shore of Long Island , NY .

Alien String
I get verbatim sunlight through my kitchen window during the early eventide and want to conquer the low-cal string floating . With some lumbering colour fudge factor in Lightroom , and a 180 rotation of the image I managed to get a “ tree diagram ” on a “ horizon ” . Nikon D610 , 50 mm @ 1/160 @ f / 1.4 , ISO 100

Overexposed Showgirls
I care how the reflections on the windows of the entryway exposed the prospect OK while the strip guild and everything else outside was brag out . I set a canyon G7 X to Manual mode 1/160sec , f/1.8 , and ISO 125

Stare Down
Took a class take the air down to the beach and loved the intense stare down I was getting from our dog . I made the horrific error of let a Leica M and have since had it somehow attached to me and am seriously look at not returning it ! Needless to say I had it with me when we went down for a quick decline pass to the beach and out of the whole family our dog was my most cooperative subject as long as I maintain throwing the ball . I thought it would be a merriment persona for the challenge and just keep open up the aperture and crank up the ISO until I vaunt out most of the ground with the abrasive mid - day light actually help for once . Leica M , 50 Summilux 1.4 , 1/4000s , f1.4 , ISO 1600 , Converted to intermediate contrast B&W in Lightroom .

Oddworld Flag
Flag flying over my neighbor house in a strong wind on a bright day . The flag is backward because that ’s the way the nothingness is blow and I only had one position to view it from . Nikon Coolpix P100 F 4.5 , 1/1000 shutter speed .
KC Nordquist
Maize Maze
We chew the fat a local farm this weekend , and explored their corn tangle . I conceive this photograph bewitch the feeling of being misplace in the improbable corn in the blaze sunshine for just a chip too long . I also care the manner the corn stalks are part translucent when backlit . Canon G7X , f/4 . 1/800 sec . exposure , ISO-250 .

Lone Star Le Mans
I was in Austin , Texas over the weekend for the 2015 Lone Star Le Mans airstream , so I figured that this would be a good chance to show an example of intentionally over exposing a shot not for save a shadowed surface area , but for give rise motion blur for take a signified of speed .
Since this shot was strike in full sun in the midsection of the day , normal exposure would have postulate low ISOs and high-pitched shutter speeds in rules of order to prevent blowing out highlights . The job is this would effectively freeze the action resulting in a good
but static shooter of a auto in the middle of the route . alternatively , I maintain the ISO at 100 , set up the aperture to f/8 to give me a decently large depth of theater to play with ( since I was plump to be manually tracking and concentre on a very rapidly moving auto , but as you’re able to see even then I just scarce nailed stress on the center of the car ) and dropped the shutter speed all the style down to 1/125 sec to ascertain that , if I was able to accurately touch the f number of the cable car with my lense , everything but it would be affected by a significant amount of gesture blur giving me the desired sentience of movement . take down , I could have set the shutter speed even lower to prove and induce even more move fuzz , but I ’ve feel that going much lower than 1/100 can leave in irrecoverable high spot and increase difficulty in attain focus on the moving target .
The raw single file was of course of instruction a fairly over exposed stroke , but all it takes to accomplish the concluding shot is a minute or so in your photo editing software program of choice to find down the exposure a few stops and setting your dim / blanched levels to your preference . With a steady hired hand , some practice , and a spot of fortune , shots like this are n’t really that hard to get .
