Foraging maize at nights near Neuss, Germany

[Richard de Florennes]

Made a tour with my bicycle yesterday until after dusk as I followed a silage trailer to a field only two miles from our house.

Once again I found night shots the most difficult art of photography and here are results, your (be honest, please) opinions are welcome, maybe one candidate for the photo contest among these???

For comparison, here is a night shot from last July's barley harvest here in the lower Rhine region:

: night shots is verry diffucult because the ligt on the machines flash back. The pics are very fine, spicially the first one. :o

I'm finding it near impossible if it is a really dark night and the only light is the machine, tends to flare a bit

Wonderful; I love night photos, and take my hat off to anyone who can do a good job of them - I certainly can't!

0162a and 0181a are the favourites for me. I have tried night/dusk/dawn photo's with machinery, both with flash and without, with machine worklights on and without and I never succeed, I just can't seem to get it right whatever I try and do. You seem to have it down to a fine art though, lovely work.

Wow you have the noght shots down to a fine art, do you use a Digtial camera or a Digtial SLR or a standard SLR?
