Over the last year or two we’ve seen
massive panoramas, some amazing HDR shots and plenty of other cool
effects. Still, the creativity of photographers manages to impress.
A photographer named Stephen
Wilkes came up with an incredibly cool idea – show the transition
from day to night in a single image. The effect ranges from subtle
to drastic depending on the location of the photograph and the
execution of the technique. In both cases, it’s incredibly cool.
Wilkes achieved this by setting up a
camera forty feet off of the ground in a cherry picker and
photographing the same scene throughout the day. He kept his
aperture constant and adjusted shutter speed to reflect the changing
light. Once all the photographs were done, he picked the best of the
bunch and merged the photos in Photoshop to create these slick
transitions.
