Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken in Behbahan, Khuzestan, south of Iran.

Time

I took this photo in the middle of a hot summer night.

Lighting

Ensure it is very dark. Set your camera to a long exposure such as several seconds. Then turn on your flashlight while aiming at the camera and move it around all while the camera is “taking the photo”. Turn the flash off when you have created whatever shape you want.

Equipment

This was on a Nikon D800, with a Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8

Inspiration

I saw many great night photos

Editing

When it comes to software, you need a raw file developer first. I have tested most raw developing software available on the market today and I came to the conclusion that, for astrophotography, there’s no better alternative than Adobe Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw. Practically, they are identical. If you want to do some more in-depth tweaking, Adobe Photoshop is also useful.
