"Mailboxes aren't cool" mfs when I show them a cool picture of a mailbox that I took:

nahhhh bro that's a level 4 lightning buff

Ong lol

real

HOW TF DID YOU DO THAT?!??
THAT'S AMAZINGGGG :D

This was taken using a 50 second exposure.
I took a little light that I use for a lot of my long exposure photos and first illuminated the back of the mailbox. I then illuminated the front but a little bit less than the back. Then I took the light started at the bottom, and just went around and around in circles around the mailbox "painting" the light into the image. Then I edited in Photoshop and boom.
Lmk if you have more questions :)

Holy shit

You have professional photography skills bro
That's amazing

Tysmm that means so much to me :DD

Np!! :)

holy-------

just take my upvote and run

Thx lol

Long exposure, I see. Makes a really cool effect, especially with light!

Yes, I love doing long exposure photos at night using different lighting techniques :)

That's nice! Keep up the good work! :)

Tysm

Light stick!!!!!!

Lol yea

Ty :)

This honestly is a great photo! Way better than I could ever do. I'm going to save up for a great camera like yours.

Ty
My photos are better than people in my photo class who have $2000 dollar cameras, my photo teacher practically told me that without actually saying it. $2000 vs. $400, so you don't need really good, expensive gear to take good photos.

Hmm, good to know!

Also you could do this with your camera I think

I'm not 100% sure on how, but I'll give it a shot!

I can guide you through it, if you would like

Sure thanks.

THATS INSANE

Why are you even on here, you could be making tons of money with how professional your pictures look

Maybe because I'm 15 lmao

But still, get off this dumb meme website and got get rich lol

It can actually be really hard to be a photographer for a living and make money. That's probably why I'll be going into that trades and then photography will be a thing that I do on the side for fun. Idk yet though, but I do know that being in the trades would allow me to earn a lot of money depending on what I do, and I would be able to buy the camera equipment that I want.

Ok

Lightning cloak in skyrim be like
Also how in the world did you do that

This was taken using a 50 second exposure.
I took a little light that I use for a lot of my long exposure photos and first illuminated the back of the mailbox. I then illuminated the front but a little bit less than the back. Then I took the light started at the bottom, and just went around and around in circles around the mailbox "painting" the light into the image. Then I edited in Photoshop and boom.
Lmk if you have more questions :)

But if it was long exposure, wouldn't you be warped into the photograph?

No, this is a bit tricky to explain though.
As long as you are moving around and aren't being illuminated by another light, you won't be warped into the photo. Long exposure photos keep the shutter of the camera open, allowing any source of light to be painted into the sensor; that light from the sensor is painted onto the photo that you are taking. When long exposures are used in sufficient lighting conditions, the moving objects can be seen as well, although they appear blurry.

So to makes the effect better, you capture the image in the dark?

Make* you saw nothing

on an unrelated note: is this your mailbox or did you just go up to a random mailbox and say: "well shit this looks like a nice mailbox for a photo, i dont care whose it is or if they allow it, i will take a pic anyway"

Lmao it's mine

How much do we wanna bet SOMEONE will try to find your location using it?

Totally lol

ok lol

Wow

Thx
