Bonsoir très belle démonstration de PS et LR j'adore votre façon de travailler merci à vous bon ciel et bonnes photos !

I stumbled across your channel this morning and I have been binge watching and trying out all of these different methods lol. Finding your videos has been such a great experience. The way you lay this all out is making it so much clearer for me. Thanks again!

Not sure how many times I have watched and learned from this video.

Learning so much from your tutorials, the final images are just stunning. Thank you

Fantastic work! Thanks for giving an overview of your process. Lovely art.

I very much appreciate the time and effort you take to put these extremely informative instructional videos together. I can't wait to go out and put these techniques into practice. Thank you.

You explain this process in an easy to digest way, and your work is visually stunning. I can't wait to experiment with these techniques in my photo and video experiments.

Beautiful work never ages.

Another excellent instructional video. I'm saving all your videos in a separate folder to watch repeatedly. I love that the videos teach you everything from how to find suitable foreground objects to light paint, how to capture the night sky, and how to edit them and blend to make the most of them. It's all delivered in a clear, concise and inspirational way that really makes me want to have a go myself. Thank you so much for this. These are easily the best videos on night photography.

Thank you for taking the time to show us your work flow. I am looking forward to trying my first light painting thanks to your inspiration.

After reading the other comments I would only be repeating what's already been said, very well done. Your insights will raise the quality of my photos ten fold. Many thanks 😊

thank you for all your work and teachings

Wow!! Just beautiful , I think it actually looked best with one less light paint layer the composition right before the last added.

THANK YOU!!!!! New sub 👋 thank you for explaining everything including the shoot and your settings. Can't wait to watch some more of your videos.

Thank you for this straight forward explanation, it's much appreciated. Cheers Paul (PRK)

Always happy to see a new video from you. Thanks for this one, I've been thinking about trying this for some time now. Great job as always.

Wonderful results.......explained in a way that everyone can understand and appreciate.

Wow Richard, love this! So glad I discovered your channel! Can’t wait to try some of your techniques!!

Great videos, you're doing the lords work

Awesome instructions! Thank you!

i can watch your videos for hours, beautiful places and a lot to learn

I really appreciate the video. I have been planning to get out and take some nightscape photos, but was not sure how photographers were capturing the fore ground detail. I can see that light painting could have a number of applications. Thanks for the inspiration.

Fantastic video. Thank from Spain.

I've been wondering how this was done. Thank you so much for such a detailed and easy to understand video tutorial.

This was an awesome video. Just started lighting in the dark and love it. Appreciate the info.

Thank you, brilliant video, love the light painting, beautiful photo's. p.s. Just happened to watch this one again...and loved it :)

Excellent tutorial! Thank you!

This was a great explanation of light painting, I really appreciate the photoshop layer/mask explanation and seeing layer by layer how much detail is added by the light. Awesome video, your work is beautiful

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, you are inspiring me very much! Greetings from Germany

Thank you so much for this video - it will improve my lightpainting hobby, I'm sure.

I'm so hooked. I love shooting at night, long exposures and macro photography. Your videos have inspired me to put all three together and hopefully with some practice put great pieces of art on my wall. Thanks.

Excellent video, thanks a lot for sharing! 😃👍 This technic triggers my imagination to probably solve a problem with an idea for a picture that is sticking in my brain for years now. Again, thank you so much! Subscribed of course! Cheers, Martin

Spot on mate, your a star.

Whow ... Graet Photos and a very good tutorial 👍

Great video! Ive been on my journey for 6 years not and still learning alot!

This is amazing. Because I have a APS-C camera (Canon 800D) I'll start with a Tokina 11mm 16mm lens the one you recommended me.👍👍👍

Fantastic explanation. Thanks!

Wow ,what a splendid tutorial, it was great to see how the different layers come together to produce your final image. You`re enjoyable to listen to and thanks for sharing your knowledge :). Now I just have to master my LUMIX FZ300 :).

Yes , thanks for this. Up till now I would just bang of some flashes in the foreground, with a hope and wish. Sometimes OK sometimes not. I like the idea of the torch and experience with fstop and time to get things right. Also changing the colour temperature from a cold blue sky to warmer in front. Thanks very much

These videos are such a pleasure to watch. Everything is so well explained and the final images are beautiful. Thank you for making these. As an aspiring photographer, these are really helpful. I'm going to try some light painting shots this week.

Thank you for sharing your techniques

Great video on technique! Very helpful!

I took a beautiful picture of Neowise tonight. I bough the introvelometer like you suggested and used it to help capture some nice pictures. Thanks for your help Richard

Awesome video and tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Richard, I took the time yesterday to watch all your videos on KZfaq. It's a beautiful job, thank you for your sharing and your explanations very clear. I know the work that it represents, bravo! Olivier from Belgium

Well done! Thanks for sharing.

Very inspiring. Looking to take my night photograpy to this level. Just subscribed to your channel. Lots to learn. Thanks for taking the time to show us how. Semper Fly.

thank you so much for sharing your process. you give very clear explanations. I am making a start into lightpainting and loving it. I have suscribed to your channel. love your photos.

This video should have much more likes. I really enjoyed your video. It was a real pleasure to follow you on your way of how to create this beautiful image. Your explanations were superb! Thats why I immediately subscribed to your channel. Thanks a lot!

Wonderful tutorial ... thank you .

Great photo. Thanks for sharing.

You're an amazing photographer!

Your videos are awesome! keep up the good work!

Great tutorial, I just came from browsing low light tube photography. At first I thought about skipping this one, as I have done painting with light before. Then you hooked me with the pinsharp stars at the back while having to spend time painting-in the subject. The few times I've done painting with light, I always tried to do it in one go. Taking different shots for different angles is actually a brilliant and logic way to do it, as you cut down on noise and you can light the same area of your subject multiple times, giving you more options to combine, especially if you have not refined your painting technique. If you burn out a detail while doing it in one go, it could potentially be the cause of great frustration. Sometimes..., (no correction), ...it's always worthwhile to revisit something you've done in the past, because somewhere out there someone else is doing the same thing with a much better approach! Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Great job we need more

Awesome tutorial, love the way you explain everything in-depth and eloquently. Super enjoyable & very informative. Also amazing images as always. Thanks heaps for sharing a little bit of your workflow for post-processing. 😊🙌👍👏👏👏

Wise words Richard... life is a journey 🙏🏽

You inspired me a lot more, i really loved this!

Really like that looking for more

Great work and thanks for sharing

great video you just got me enthusiastic about getting out at night again .

Thank you !

Great shot, and thorough explanation of your technique. The summary, I thought should include the "lighten" blend mode used.

WOW! that looks phenomenal :-)

Cool video! Was really interesting to watch.

Thank you so much Richard. You made a great video here. Inspires me to get out there and get some beautiful night scapes myself. Your work is inspirational and beautiful. Fine art indeed. Blessings to you my Friend, I have subscribed! O:)

Thanks going to scotland in May for a few weeks .ive tried long time exposure usually 20 sec and lighting the fore ground with a torch with not much luck.But if the weather's right I'll have another go i dont won't to edit it on a pc but would like to do it "with in the camera" thanks for the inspiration

perfect , thank you

Love this idea... you are lighting the subject with a flash light.... kind of like painting...? need to try this out! Thank!

Wonderful... Great job!

more useful then others,,, thank you

Tried to do the light painting this weekend, so hard! I failed in getting decent images and my stacking didn't work out at all! do so enjoy your videos on KZfaq, thank you.

thank you!

I really want to start doing this style of photography. So beautiful

This is your second video i have watched, i Subscribe on the first video before i finished watching it. I like the way you describe how to do it, and like how you put the numbers up on the screen. I am really enjoying watching your videos and going wow at the final image. Thank you for amazing videos. Look forward to watching more.

so professional tks for sharing

Beautiful

Amaising

My names Stella.... : is beautiful!!!!!!!

Thanks for the info. Great way for o use PS

Thank you so much on sharing your knowledge. Your description of the workflow was flawless. My only query is what lights did you use for lighting the car? I have been using an LED light and finding it too stark white. Would be interested to learn more about your equipment. Thank you.

Excellent video. I think most people when they hear about light painting think of people doodling with light sources using a long exposure not making such great images like the ones you made.

Now that's quality

You explanation is so simple

Hello, Richard! I just discovered your channel almost 1 month ago and I've already watched most of your videos, I love the pieces of art you create (of course I've subscribed immediately and follow you in Instagram) thanks for the amazing knowledge you're sharing, I just ordered a torchlight to start practicing your techniques. I have a question: what happens if your camera moves a little bit when you are setting it up for the foreground exposures? Does it ruins the session? Once again, thank you for your art. And happy new year!!

A cracking tutorial Sir, it certainly has spurred me on to get on out there and try the technique. Up to now all my night shooting has been of the boring kind :O) Oh and thanks for replying to some of the comments below, not everyone does that and it certainly make a difference, well to me it does. Now where is that subscribe button.

Amazing Tips And Tricks.

Well done, even I can understand it. Thank you

Great video! Thank you so much for uploading. Do you tend to only use flashlights in your light painting or are there other lights you frequently to use?

You are the best

Great video! Please tell me what luminous flux of the flashlight is necessary for sufficient illumination of objects. For example, cars, trees, small houses?

Fabulous

Back in the stone age I used to do this kind of work on film using a Mamiya Super 23. Things were lit with my Norman 200 stobe and I lit the fore ground buy changing the focus. You system sounds complicated but beliueve me its a breeze compared to what I had to do.

Absolutely love your work ., QUESTION - when u photographed the car in this image , could u please specify where on the car u placed the focus point . Thank you ! You are an incredible inspiration ❤❤❤❤❤❤

That's is very very nice I've got something very similar in mind. The only problem is there are a lot of old cars. In a line beside a highway. And the background is not very nice. The cars are on small hill. I was thinking of maybe a small light inside the cars. Maybe a foggy night to cover the background. Are should I just pick 1 car? And focus on 1 like this car is coming back alive. I've got a cannon t6i. And to be honest It's been laying around for a year. So I've got to brush up. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Photograph lets me look at the world around me in a different light. Can't wait to try to get shooting done. I got my books but seeing it being done helps more. Thanks again.

First video I watched on painting with light. Great presentation! As I am interested in giving light painting a try, what light source does one recommend. I am sure the answer is already out there, but I just started searching this topic. Very inspiring video! Thank you

This is a great video. One thing that isn't mentioned, though (and is in fact almost never mentioned in these sorts of videos) is the focus breathing which occurs when you change your focal distance on the lens. You're going to wind up with a different image after refocusing from the sky to the car, and given that this is a pretty wide lens (20mm) the distortion along with the change in focal length makes this exceptionally difficult to just use Align-Layers. I'm always curious to hear how people go about mitigating this challenge.

Fantastic tutorial. did you set the camera on a timer to release the shutter becouse you need to paint the object so you are not at the camera.And do je need to hold the light still when the shutter is open? and what i dont understand is how is the car stil sharp when you blend the backround picture with the less sharp car in the sharp foreground pictures. 2000 iso is still huge . i have a nikon d800 and i use a irix 15mm 2.5 but with 2000 iso there is noise . thank you again for this verry helpfull tutorial to get me started.

Thanks for this and many other of your videos. I discovered your channel recently, being interested in the art of light painting. I have a question, one that may be answered elsewhere but I have not seen it yet. How do you coordinate the start of the exposure period with being in the right location to do the light painting?
