Right: Striking pictures of statues can be made at night. Illumination by an auto’s spotlight will suffice if regular floodlights are lacking. TO begin with, there’s a lot of fas cination in the idea of making pictures at night. Offhand, "pictures in the dark” sounds incredible. Ac tually, however, any snapshooter— no matter how recent a beginner— can make outdoor pictures at night 1 easily and it’s a lot of fun. Most such pictures—of flood-lit buildings, of city skylines, etc. — have to be given “time" exposures. Since, for time exposures, the cam , era must be absolutely steady, a tri pod or some form of camera support is required. Modern tripods are very compact and inexpensive. If a tripod isn’t at hand, the camera may be rested on any firm support—a bench, a rock, a box or even in the crotch of a tree. In making pictures at night it is | more important than ever that you : “compose” your picture before you open the shutter. Remember that any exposed light, such as a street lamp, an auto headlight or an elec tric sign, will register strongest on the Him. Usually it is a good idea to avoid sueh lights entirely, unless they are essential to the picture you’re after. “How long did you have to expose for that picture?” This is the invari able question people ask on seeing a night photograph. The answer is en tirely dependent on the scene. With a * fast * lens and the new type super-sensitive film It is possible to make fractlon-of-a-second shots of very brilliantly illuminated subjects, such as the crowd under a theater’s brightly lighted marquee. An<f y0u ean hold your oamera In your hand, Other Tim, such as long shots of Ole World’s Fair buildings, may need exposures of a minute or two. But the camera must rest on a steady support. With modern film, which has great exposure latitude, it is better to overexpose night shots. If you have never made night pictures before, try making several exposures of the same scene, ranging in time from thirty seconds to'two or three min utes. Then, when the films are fin ished, study them to see which Is most satisfactory Once started in outdoor night photography you will soon develop ingenuity In getting the scenes that appeal to you. Automobile head lights or spotlights can be used effec tively to illumine a subject. Spot lights are best, because they can be moving during the exposure, “paint ing” the subject with light. For action pictures at night, flash lights of some sort are necessary. The modern photoflash balb Is the neatest, safest source of flashlight ing. You merely screw the bulb— which looks like an ordinary electric light bulb with some crinkled tinfoil inside—into the socket of a hand battery outfit and, when all’s set, open your camera shutter, flash the lamp, and click the shutter closed. The reflector usually supplied with photoflash outfits controls the light nicely so that nearby objects are amply illuminated. There is. as you may already have discerned, no arbitrary dead-line for picture making. Every hour of the whole day is yours. And the fun of making the pictures Is endless, tv \ JOHN VAN GUILDER.
