Guyam Light Painting
{"Image ImageDescription": "Light-painting HNY on a deserted island with fireworks!   I bought a hundred light sticks earlier this year to shoot them tied to surfers at a full (super)moon night here in Siargao, Philippines. We tried, but it didn\u2019t come together. Left with most lights, I decided to go my favourite location here, the deserted Guyam island near Siargao island. Earlier this year I took a fire dancer there and shot him under the Milky Way, I always wanted to try out something different, this seemed perfect, and now finally I was even able to buy fireworks!  With a few friends and friends of friends we headed to the island, on a hopefully rainless night. My idea was for everyone to create their own light-rope using different colours, then have them paint/dance/move/swing in front of the island and shooting whatever we came up with. Along the way we came up with the idea to light-paint \u2018Happy New Year! Guyam\u2019. The firework fountain shots turned out really hard as I had no experience and only had 6 tries of a few seconds. They weren\u2019t very spectacular either and one didn\u2019t even work. At least they were of some decoration to the Happy New Year shot.  The image is a composition as you might imagine :) The trees are composed of a few shots where I had my friends lighting up the trees with a flashlight and walking around between the trees with a camera flash, lightning up the trees from various angles. The sky was a separate shot, as was the shooting star. Each firework is a separate shot and the light-painting shot is different. \u2018Happy New Year! Guyam\u2019 we took in 4 different shots.   Shot with a D750 + 14-24/f2.8. After some RAW editing I added the images to my file in Photoshop, used the lighten transparency and masked out the subject. There\u2019s even a bit of a Milky Way in there!", "Image Make": "NIKON CORPORATION", "Image Model": "NIKON D750", "Image XResolution": "1", "Image YResolution": "1", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Not Absolute", "Image Software": "Adobe Photoshop CC (Macintosh)", "Image DateTime": "2016:12:30 03:28:53", "Image Artist": "Martien Janssen", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered", "Image Copyright": "Copyright my Martien Janssen", "Image ExifOffset": "2108", "EXIF ExposureTime": "25", "EXIF ExposureProgram": "Manual", "EXIF ISOSpeedRatings": "6400", "EXIF ExifVersion": "0230", "EXIF DateTimeOriginal": "2016:12:26 21:54:35", "EXIF DateTimeDigitized": "2016:12:26 21:54:35", "EXIF ComponentsConfiguration": "YCbCr", "EXIF ApertureValue": "24361/8200", "EXIF ExposureBiasValue": "0", "EXIF MeteringMode": "Pattern", "EXIF LightSource": "Cool white fluorescent (W 3900 - 4500K)", "EXIF Flash": "Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode", "EXIF FocalLength": "24", "EXIF SubSecTimeOriginal": "69", "EXIF FlashPixVersion": "0100", "EXIF ColorSpace": "sRGB", "EXIF SensingMethod": "One-chip color area", "EXIF ExposureMode": "Manual Exposure", "EXIF WhiteBalance": "Manual", "EXIF DigitalZoomRatio": "1", "EXIF SceneCaptureType": "Standard", "EXIF GainControl": "High gain up", "EXIF Contrast": "Normal", "EXIF Saturation": "Normal", "EXIF Sharpness": "Normal", "EXIF SubjectDistanceRange": "0"}
