Fiberoptic Portal - Light Painting

Bush Tunnel

A few weeks ago I showed you the natural tunnel not far from my office, it's made entirely of trees. So I took a few minutes to test what's possible considering the ambient city light. Here is my second run.

Yes, there was not much exposure time possible. A little over a minute is what's ok, beyond that it would start to get too bright in the images.

Nicht weit von meinem Büro entfernt, befindet sich ein Tunnel aus Bäumen. Letzte Nacht habe ich mir ein paar Minuten Zeit genommen, um zu testen, was angesichts des Umgebungslichts der Stadt möglich ist.
Ja, es war nicht viel Zeit. Etwas mehr als eine Minute ist in Ordnung, darüber hinaus würde es in den Bildern zu hell werden.

As the centerpiece, I wanted that huge portal made with a huge fiber whip.
It always gets you some random patterns that are super facinating. Not sure where this is going but I may return here with a more sophisticated idea.

Als Herzstück wollte ich dieses riesige Portal mit einer riesigen Fiberwhip malen. Das bringt immer so coole zufällige Muster, die super faszinierend sein können. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, wohin das führt, aber ich komme vielleicht mit einer anspruchsvolleren Idee hierher zurück.

What were the settings for the featured image?

Here is the test to illuminate the tree tips in red. Just trying different things.

As always here is one of the test shots applying some red light only to get a feeling for what works. I decided just red does not cut it so orange on the floor, very subtle. When you look closer the transition from red to white and orange is very interesting that was what I was looking for.

Wie immer ist hier eine der Testaufnahmen mit etwas rotem Licht, nur um ein Gefühl dafür zu bekommen, was funktioniert. Ich entschied, dass nur Rot es nicht so richtig bringt, also noch etwas orange auf dem Weg. Wenn ihr genau hinschaut, da wo es ins weiße und orange übergeht; das ist dann schon cool. Das war was ich wollte.

I hope you found these images inspirational. If you have more questions please do not hesitate. I am happy to share my knowledge.
