Hi, I'm back with another contribution to Gaming Photography community and this time I'm going to join Gaming Photography Weekly Contest.
I used photo mode for an extensive night photography session with John after finishing a bounty job. I captured him drinking, smoking synced with the moon, and detonating a fire bottle. Things turned extreme when I stood in the fire, leading to a fatal experiment.
After finishing the bounty job with Sadie Adler, it became dark, so after a long time, I decided to try some night photography and this time, I decide to try something exlusive.
After finding the half-moon in the correct position, I stopped there to try some filters with different angles, adjusting the exposure to highlight the sharp silver crescent against the clouds.
Then I reached this edge of the cliff, where I took up the horse and tried some alcohol. I mean, I let John try some alcohol, framing the quiet moment of isolation against the vast backdrop of the canyon.
Trust me, I never smoked in my life, and I don't even like the smell of a smoke. But I couldn't help but trying for John to smoke for this night photography, and turns out, those photos became my all-time favorite.
While John was smoking, I was trying to sync him with the moon, and there I blurred out the film to try something new for it, creating a beautiful effect with the distant lunar light.
I had to use multiple cigarettes as he doesn't smoke it for a long time, and this time I caught him lighting a cigarette, keeping the night sky behind.
And then I decided to explode a fire bottle in the dark to see how it looked, watching the sudden burst of light tear through the shadows of the cliffside.
I guess I tried this before, but I didn't try what I was going to do next.
Yeah, I literally set foot into the fire and I let John caught on fire. And using the photo mode, I zoomed in toward John's face to check his expression, capturing the intense, hyper-realistic panic detailed in the game's facial animations.
As I was not moving from the fire zone for some time, the fire spread to all over John's body. And as I tried a health tonic, he survived, catching breath as the health core slowly filled back up amidst the ashes.
I decided to mount my horse and see if my horse gets on fire but the fire went off on his body right away after getting out of the fire zone.
So I did it again, getting close to my horse. And this time, I got a little fire on John's body while riding the horse, but then John died, as the damage stacking and the health tonic stopped working till then.
Here I'm finishing the post for today and I'll come talk about more special RDR 2 gaming moments in Gaming Photography.
"The screenshots are my take but properties of Red Dead Redemption 2."
