Night Photography – beyond the light of the day

25 10 2010

I really like to photograph at night. Night photography demands more on technical knowledge than daylight photography, the light is way different from sunlight, both in color and intensity.
For the photographer the rhythm must be different, every shot takes a longer time than an ordinary daylight shot, it is not a matter of fractions of a second. When you’re photographing at night you have to click and wait until the light is fully registered, every picture takes several seconds, minutes and even hours for the correct recording of the light.
The longer the exposure, the farer you’ll be from reality, you stop shooting what you see to start shooting what you interpret from a scene.
I picked some pictures I’ve took on the last few years, let’s see them. =^)

Here’s some of them.
