Very slow shutter with second curtain on a flash.

Got it, but how come this picture has the foreground so lit up while the background is still pretty well exposed?

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but dragging the shutter is using a slow shutter speed.

This is what I get using 1 second to 1/15.

Kind of a huge difference between his subjects and mine.

>>190606Either a really bright flash

Front on diffused at like, nearly 1:1?

Yeah. I'm not a flash expert, but it just looks like a very powerful flash that's well diffused.

correct use of expensive hardware.

i hate you.

or, if you shooped these, then i despise and ridicule you, but i bet they are real.

good work. i hate you for taking better photos than me.

Just try and match it in your house. Noticing the light trails you can probably deduce that the aperture is pretty tight and it has a slow shutter speed.

Also, everyones skin looks photoshoped.

Meh, the lighting is so damn even for on camera flash.

>>190618

Um, those aren't my pictures.

And somehow, I don't think any amount of Photoshop can get you this.

I'm trying to get the same results.

I can get>>190608no problems, but I want it like the other ones.

I think his exposure is longer than .3 seconds, and his aperture is probably higher to keep the light trails tight

Slow shutter speed makes the background well-exposed; it lets the light from back there bleed in. Your subjects, up close, are frozen, while the people in the background don't look quite as blurred because there's less detail on them to be blurred. Also, the flash will reach a lot of them some, too, probably.

Fast shutter speed makes the background go dark. An extreme example is this awesome photograph by David Alan Harvey. (NSFW, not that anyone cares about that on here.) If you want to learn to use flash right in at concerts, clubs, festivals, study DAH.

All the ones you posted have a long shutter. Flashing when your exposure starts (normal/first curtain) freezes the subjects where they are when you press the shutter. Flashing at the end (second curtain) freezes them where they are at the end of your exposure.

We all know how to drag the shutter and using second curtain.

We're more interested in the flash use.

Stick an off camera flash to the ceiling!
>> Jeremo
the second curtain isn't mandatory, just shoot at about 1/20 @ ISO 200 (or whatever is good for the background) and adjust your speedlight to expose the people correctly.

The first few pics is using a bounce card very very effectively
