I like to use this as a puzzle. It was a foggy night, the lighthouse had four beams, it was done with a single press of the shutter. How do you think I did it?

It was a 10 second exposure. I put my hand in front of the lens and moved it back and forth once or twice a second, effectively turning it into about 15 or 20 half second exposures as the beams swept through the fog. I don't remember how many attempts I made at the shot, both at dusk, and late at night, but some of them are in this set: http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157622443730942 -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
