Bokenight in Nijmegen

Bokenight in Nijmegen

A try-out with my 70-200 4.0L lens , it has a great stabilization and i wanted to see how long i would be able to take sharp photos .. well in this case the 1,4X converter was also still mounted and i was too lazy to remove this :D

but even with 5,6 i was able to produce sharp photos ( up to ISO 3200 )

Lightpainting in Oymyakon .... at -51C

Lightpainting in Oymyakon .... at -51C

Here we where in Oymyakon .. the people whom i was travveling with new that i do lightpainting and i took some orbs with me to draw the coldest balls of light ever done before ..

the original color Blue was unusable , due to the extreme cold we had -51 at this time the wire was so stiff that i could not use it anymore .. the red one died ( batterie ) and the yellow ones survived and with them i managed to draw this pic ... in total we where outside for 45 minutes to get this best result :D the green is done with a LED Lenser P14 with colorfilter .. i thought lets just drop some orbs here ... but that was far from easy .. the camera batteries did a splendid job here my tripod was frozen solid , the head could not be moved anymore ..

we got a bit lost on our way back .. but after 15 minutes we found our guesthouse ..an unforgettable moment and for most an unforgettable Holiday

the -71,2 i drawed here is the lowest temperature ever measured in Oymyakon or in any inhabited place on earth !
