Hi Armando,
Yes, some 20 stages over a period of 2,5 years. Each time-layer consists of some 30 stitched images giving the result an enormous sharpness: https://metabotnik.com/projects/140/
From every time-layer I selected part of the image to have more opacity. I focussed on the construction workers and their tools. This work is an ode to these workmen. The print will be 175x220cm.
Thanks!
Willem
Hello Willem and welcome
The Stitching part made me look deeper and if my understanding is correct, you are in fact merging/focus stacking/stitching...... images with varying opacity probably via mask or some application?
The other interesting development is the Zoomable images.....Metabotnik....I assume this is dependant on the original image resolution and acute stopping down?
I remember having come across such app some time ago. I will look for it. It is not unique to you, is it?
What I also found very interesting is that you are using a dormant lens namely the Micro-Nikkor 70-180mm f/4.5-5.6D ED.
What is a bit puzzling with the published pic are the exposure parameters are: 1/40 sec, f/5, ISO 200.
I assume with such heavy camera/lens, you were using a tripod but I am still perplexed as to why f5. Granted that as it is a photomerge, the Exif will show the base image Exif....but still f5??
With all these stills available to you, surely making a Time Lapse video requires a simple mouse click....so to speak! Or probably you do that already?
And who is Pieter Kers who got his name as owner of the image?
