RE: NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST | CAPTURING THE NIGHT | WEEK 7 | Nightlife and Events

in Traveling Steem5 months ago

I always have trouble making photos inside and at night. It's then I miss owning a real camera.

I don't think I ever saw a drone show but I can imagine how great it must have been. You took some great photos of this spectacke. 👍

The only shows I was present at (perhaps by now over 30 if not 40 years ago) were those done by airplanes, water and firework. The one with firework and music was about the war against Spain. Very impressive (plus Iove history and the music).

I have no clue how to join this challenge since if there's no moon, there are stars (if no mist) or it's being pitch dark. I live on the countryside and there aren't many living here. No streetlights or neighbours.

Since it's winter staying outside all night to capture the eyes of animal life doesn't sound attractive either. 🙄

Thank you for let me have a look at this great event.

I think I need to explain here! First off, I am not scared to talk about age and years so 30-40 sounds like a child's play 😄As far as staying out to watch birds' eyes in winter? It is the peak of the summer here besides there was so much else to watch than watching birds' eyes 😄😄😄 I accept Photography is my passion so I can stay out even during winters though!

I am not sure if I understood you well. I said it's 30 perhaps 40 years ago I watched an airshow. Why was that a child's play? Perhaps I do not understand that expression well? 🤔

If photography is your passion I assume you have a great camera? It's no longer a passion of mine and I regret I no longer have my cameras (non digital) which keeps the passion away as well.

My youngest told me, she noticed on the way out to the bathroom, it was a beautiful sky (starry) last night. Good enough to take some photos, I asked, but she said I can forget about that.

I believe I once shot the moon by using a telescope.🤔

I wish you fun outside shooting the night(life).

Yes, even 30-40 years ago, I used to take photos with my cameras as an adult so I know what you meant. I have seen those air shows myself so I know what they looked like. I understand that you are not interested in photography apart from what you shoot on your phone! Am I right?

I once was a photographer (better don't ask what my place looked like) but gave up on it due to health issues. This was long before the digital camera.
I'm not flattered by the photo's I make with my phone, the phone rarely sees what I see, so if it comes to photograhy I gave up on it on total.

I'm more into stories today, although in my heart I'm still a sculptor. So I am not too interested in photos to brighten up what I wrote, I find it a distraction.

A difference is if the picture tells the story.

I meant to say that while you recently enjoyed an air show, the last air show I saw was decades ago. Maybe my life is at a hold?

Thank you for the nice talk.
