Shooting in subdued light
If you are shooting in subdued light, classic photography method is to select a very low shutter speed (tens of seconds or even more) to reveal the faintest objects in the scene. The conclusion is to take just one long exposure for the image. An alternative way to proceed, however, is to take several short exposures of the same scene and then adding them up with editing software like Photoshop packages. Now, this technique offers a wealth of advantages, leading up to better images and greater creativity for the photographer.
This method of summing up several pictures of the same scene is conceptually simple and easy to carry out. Many people take as many photographs as necessary so that when summing them up, the scene will be lighted as planned. Light from each photo will add to that of the other photos. Adding an appropriate number of such pictures, the photographer can get a final image properly exposed and satisfactory looking. When you want to take a look at a more in-depth description of this method and an example, you can contact us.
Let's look at two macro examples. Now, in the first one, we use the already present natural ambient lighting. With the second example, we provide the main lighting source. With the first case, the proposed method offers several advantages, but, in the second case, the benefits are even more extensive.
Due to thermal noise in CCDs, still digital cameras simply cannot offer arbitrarily long exposure time - the“B” setting does not exist in digital cameras at all. The proposed method overcomes the problem of very long exposure, impossible with digital cameras, even professional versions.
Yet another advantage in using the proposed method is noise reduction effects. At least a part of noise is stochastic, which means that it can add to or subtract from the signal noise. When we sum many noisy images, we make a sort of average, so reducing the noise effect.
Another advantage is we can dismiss faulty images as we want. Some may be blurred by micro-movement of the camera (eg due to the wind) or imperfect in other aspects. To give an example, an airplane or a car passing by may leave an unwanted path of light in the image. Now, there could be millions of reasons why an exposure could be faulty or incorrect. However, if we take just one long exposure, we will end up with a useless image. But if we take a lot of them, keeping all of them short, we can dismiss some of the shots when we edit. If the exposure requires some photographer’s actions, like firing sequences of flashes then this is all the more important.
The powerful capabilities of image editing software offer another benefit. For example, we can mask unwanted parts in some of the images. We could avoid saturation of the brightest parts of the image, for example. In this way, the lighting will be more uniform and spread out. We could alternatively do this creatively by dimming some portions of the final image on purpose. In this way, control over the brightness of the single parts of the image is much greater.
