Blue hour photography at the VW festival!

Night photography is a whole different kind of sport! And at this festival it was worse!
Due to the safety measures, I couldn't bring my tripod on the terrain! I understand that! It could be seen as a big weapon! I think he can hit hard in a fight! So I needed to get the ISO up and get myself a steady hand or find me a steady surface some where!

When dancing in between a crowed, it's pretty hard to get a nice clean shot!
I am not sure how the mobile telephone pictures came out! It was already pretty dark! I uesde F22 because I wanted the whoe area sharp! from the phone to the stage!

ISO 6400 F622 1/25sec

But the reason I wanted to take my camera with me on the terrain was the Ferris wheel! That's always a nice subject to take pictures of! This was made during sunset into blue hour!

ISO 6400 F6,3 1/320 sec

I wanted to make a couple of long exposures of the wheel! But not to long! I wanted to make the light look like spokes in a wheel! So I didn't need a really long exposure!

This was made at 0.6 sec at F18 and iso 100! I took this picture out of my hand with the image stabilization on! But I was not satisfied! the spokes could be more closed up!

This I took at 1,3 seconds and F22 at ISO 100! This is what I was looking for! Also took this out of my hand! There was nothing I could lean against!

So many different colors! I could stand there for hours! 😂
But I was not alone and the group was waiting for me!

On the way back to the camping we past the exhibition hall, and one of them has got a nice out doors space! With a beautiful wooden constructed roof!

I love constructions like this! And the vans underneath it make it complete for me! Than the real size of the construction become visible!

The sky was still pretty awesome to see! What a magical blue hour it was!

ISO 6400 F6,3 1/80 sec

ISO 6400 FD6,3 1/15 sec

And the last picture was taken the way off the exhibition terrain of the Hanover Mess! the stairs are high, and massively wide! I saw the two people sitting there and thought it would be a nice composition! But so dark there already!

ISO 32000 F6,3 1/320 sec

I just gave a big spin on the ISO wheel on my camera! My friends were getting impatient with me! they wanted to go to the van and drink beer! But I still like the picture! Find it very moody or mystic ore something! What do you think?
