Lystagger. S-T-A-V-E..

No: Glemte å skru av lommelykten mellom T'n og A'n.

En: forgot to switch of the flashlight between the letter T and A.
Lystagger. S-T-A-V-E.. by Nanaki.
I’ll give this cookbook recipe a shot in English:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tagging with light

Tools needed:
-camera (any kind, as long as you can manipulate the shutter speed)
-tripod
-remote control (you can also use the timer function or a friend if you’re lacking the remote)
-flashlight

What to do:
1.Set up your tripod and find focus. It’s a good idea to switch over to manual focus when you’ve found the right focus length, the auto focus can bee a pain when dark.

2.Set you camera to shutter oriented mode. (on a Nikon it’s called S and on a cannon it TV) Set the shutter to 20 seconds. You can use manual mode as well, but to let the auto functions get a try first can bee a good idea (to see what aperture the camera suggests). Anyways: high aperture numbers (small opening).

3.Fire! And start “tagging” with the flashlight. Remember to shut of the flash between the letters, so that you don’t get stripes of light from one to the nest, and everything becomes a mess.

Repeat until satisfied. Remember to vary the shutter speed, and to have fun!
Good luck!

NORWEGIAN:

Utstyrsliste for lystagging:

* kamera (alle typer, så lenge du kan manipulere lukkertiden)
* tripod (stativ)
* fjernutløser (du kan bruke selvutløser eller en venn, om du ikke har fjernutløser)
* lommelykt

Framgangsmåte:

1. Sett opp kamera på stativet, og finn fokus. Det kan være lurt å sette fokusen fast (over på manuell) under selve lysfangingen.

2. Finn lukkerorientert program på kameraet (nikon & kanon har begge lukkerorientert program, på nikon heter dette S, og på canon TV). Sett lukkertiden til f.eks 20 sekunder. Du kan også leke deg med manuellle instillinger. Å likevell la automatikken gjøre et forsøk først kan være greit. Målet med dette er å få en indikasjon på hvor høy blender du trenger til de ulike lukkertidene. Uansett: høye blendertall.

3. Fyr av kamerat og begynn å “tagge” med lommelykten. Husk å skru lykten av “mellom bokstavene”, slik at alt ikke blir en “lystråd”. Så lenge du stadig er i bevegelse vil du ikke komme med i bildet. I bildet over står jeg stille for hver (rimelig stor) bokstav, og kommer derfor med i bildet.

Så er det bare å gjøre dette noen ganger, til du får det resultatet du ønsker. Prøv med ulike lukkertider for ulike resultater. Lykke til!

I take it that the letters were made by those folks (or maybe on person) drawing with some kind of light. I like the concept, but what does STAVI mean?

thanks people!
@Kj: det var aldri planen å komme med i bildet, men jeg synes også at "tagger'n" kom med er det som er spennende.

Ler høyt og masse når jeg ser dette bildet. Tenker da seff på hvor ufattelig gøy vi hadde det når det ble tatt. Husker med stor glede hvordan det gikk de to første gangene du testet dette......

som stavelin antyder her.. prosessen kan med fordel øves inn og gjøres noen ganger før det blir.. perfekt :)
