Attilio, I’ve been wondering for such a long time what type of photographs I want to start producing more of, and making sure they stand out - your fine art photography is one that feels like such a rarity that I’m used to seeing, and something that inspires me to choose long exposure photography amongst everything else. Truly incredible work and stunning results 🙏
Bellissimo video come sempre. Mi piace perché è come se raccontassi una storia. Complimenti sei bravissimo. Naturalmente preferisco the long long exposure. Ciao Marco
Well Sir I would have to say in an ocean of RUclips content out there, I feel that from all the channels I have watched you are the only real artist. Your images are remarkable Attilio. Thank you for your contributions.
Attilio, when I see your ethereal image I always fall short of words to express, how beautiful they are and how your passion and commitment reflects in your photographs. Honestly, your passion is contagious & pushes people like us to step out and take some photos and learn from your rich experience and put some to practice. Heartfelt thanks for always talking time to create content for us, keeping us in mind. Thank you is a very small word.
Attilio, absolutely fabulous. A suggestion. With all the ridiculous "reality" shows out there, why can't there be one about photography challenges with you as the host and have something entertaining that actually educates people...you're in CA, ya gotta know somebody!! Thanks for all you do.
Thanks for the great video & your thoughts on this topic! I like both, short & long long exposure. During the day when the light is hard & just some clouds are visible, i love to do long longexposures. Especially at the sea. just a straight composition, nice cyan water, maybe a big rock in the water & just a little bit of the beach. You get this crazy dreamy & creamy look. In the lower part of the image you get a light brown/ocher tone (from the sand beach), which slowly turns into a cyan with the water & in the middle part of the image you have one single rock in the image, which is getting all your attention (exposuretimes around 2 to 5 minutes). Short longexposures i love for the sunrise & sunset (at the sea), waterfalls & maybe also on a really calm lake. At the sea you get this nice soft white lines leading into the picture & on waterfalls you'll keep some of the structure in the water. One thing you could try Attilio: Take an analog camera (maybe medium format 6x6), low iso film (something Fuji Velvia 50) & some really strong ND Filters (like a 4.5) - You can reach exposure times up to hours & you can see the sun moving trough your picture. A german photographer (Nils Karlson) does this kind of shots & he also created a small book, that i really love (it's called "eyes like slumber").
I've been watching your videos for a while. I've learnt and reviewed long exposure photography through your videos, I put it into practice always trying to remember your advice and now, i'm loving it... A huge thank to you !
For this scene, I preferred short exposures showing the stripes or trails going back into the sea. Very cool effect. I really enjoyed seeing the difference here. I'm doing much more long exposure photography and really enjoy the process.
Thank you Attilio! Your channel is just getting better and better every week. Question 1 - did you try portrait orientation? Just the rock(s), water and sky without silhouette in horizon? Question 2 - do you have in your plans to do review about your "Photography Clothing" - your opinion and experience?
Thanks my friend! I did try the vertical composition, but I did like the big negative space on the right of the frame... Landscape Photography clothing could be an interesting theme for a future video, thanks 🙏
I liked both the short and long long exposures - its amazing the differences that slight shutter speed changes can make in the short/long ones. I appreciate seeing those differences so this was an excellent instructional vlog. Thanks. I have to say though that the long/long shot was captivating!
This is great Attilio. I think we share the same generally foggy stretch of coast to some degree so this is especially relevant to me. Playing with long exposures along the coast is a great way to salvage a cold and grimm looking day!
Grandissimo video Attilio , come sempre. Amo il tuo stile fotografico e grazie ai tuoi video sto imparando un sacco di cose visto che è da poco che ho iniziato con questa "DROGA" che è la fotografia :) . Complimenti ancora!
Great video. I think the first photos (short long exposure) would look much better without the ND grad filter. The sky is more pleasing when it's that foggy white that you see in real life, in my opinion. The long long exposure turned out very well though, I really enjoyed that one.
A very nice video. Very useful for those starting out with long exposure. You show many of the common problems and how to work around them. And the images are beautiful. Lovely textural contrast. One thing I would add is that if you have a 10 stop but don't own or cannot afford a darker ND filter then simply take multiple Images and blend in post. Stacking 4 exposures will give the effect of a 12 stop ND for example. Just remember to switch off the in-camera noise reduction so there's no lag between shots. Best to using a median or mean stacking operator in post too Thanks for the video Attilio. Really enjoyed
@@AttilioRuffoit works really well. I also bracket them as I don't use ND grads. Feels weird and counter-intuitive doing it. 8 seconds, 30 seconds and 120 seconds is a 2 stop bracket 😂
Hi Attilio: Thanks for creating and sharing this video. I really enjoy LONG Long Exposure photography using my Lee Big Stopper filter. However, I never really considered the potential impact of ETTR on the proposed length of time. I will consider that going forward. Thanks for the tip. Cheers, Keith
If I was there I would be stuck with my 6 STOP ND - the 1 I have. If the rock area was in focus @ F7.1 as it was for your distance, then I could have added more F Stops towards 10. It would have been interesting to see those results. I'll have to try that. Great job.
I kind a like both short and long exposures and I always enjoy watching you on RUclips and learning a lot from you and it’s helping me on my photography and thank you
Nice video, showing the process of doing long exposure, finding composition, evaluate light. Showing the settings you use, the shots you get, and sharing your thoughts are great, we learn from that :-)
Hi attilio that was a great video more of these comparisons videos on different exposure lengths would be great! As this video was really interesting mate! Keep up the great work!
hey 👋 Attilio , I like the long short exposure video especially because of your good explanation , your step by step approach. This by far one ☝️ if you best videos for me . Your approach in making not the best location & or lighting condition to a good if not great 👍 image . Nice 👍 job . I loved it . Thanks!!!!
Another brilliantly composed and explained vlog Attilio Thankyou. On your final image have you, besides the 5 minute exposure done anything in LR to make the sky and sea look so milky. Thankyou for the educational vlogs as always 📸👍🇬🇧🤓💯💥
I love both your short and long exposure. Am I correct to say that you compose your shot then judge how far to slide your graduated ND filter in the holder when using the polarizer filter and 6, 10 or 15 stop ND filter?
Am I the only one here to wonder why you didn't show us the wildlife photograph that you took. Pretty sure that you took the photograph of the two animals fighting each other. It looked so compelling to me even in the video... Great place to be.. Always a great admirer of your work and the joy of being in the nature, enjoying it. Truly amazing. Keep inspiring fellows like me.. Love from India.. 😍😍
It’s a good observation, of course I took some shots...I did think to add them to the video, then I thought they were not really in the video theme and cut them out... :-( I regret that decision though!
I have been watching your videos for a while, and i learnt a lot from you....you really are a great photographer. would you please make a video concerning filters and the different between the ND and the GND. Thanks
After watching I'm chilled right out and I've learned from you yet again, what more can one ask? Oh yes, I don't have a remote for my camera currently but I assume that I could set the timer on my camera to achieve the same non camera movement / shake? Thanks Attilio.
Great video! I’m pretty sure I know where you shot this and would love to see what you’d come back with if you went up north just a little further to the Jenner area - those rocky beaches are insane!
What do you prefer, short or long long exposures?
Attilio Ruffo both 😂😂
:-)
Hello Attilio ,depend what whe are trying to create
Long long exposure
Entirely depends. Both
Great explanation and comparison between short long and long long exposures, soundtrack also fits the video very well. Congratulations!
Thanks 🙏
The 5 min. Exposure is Fine Art. I love this work... I prefer the long exposure of 5 min. 👌
Thanks mate!
Michael Bottari the long expo really simplified that image!
Your patience, visualization, experimentation, and creativity make each session special. Thank you.
Thank you Larry!
I’m getting to this 8 months late but I think this may be your very best video; especially for the concepts it teaches. More please!
thank you!
Preferisco come sempre le lunghe esposizioni, che ho scoperto grazie ai tuoi video..........Sei un grande Attilio! Complimenti!
Grazie mille!
You are a true scientist of long exposure. The 5 min long long exposure photo is breathtaking.
😘😘😘

I prefer long exposures. Something special about them. Keep up the great work. 📸📸📸

Matt Grile they simplify the image and give it an ethereal feel for sure 🙌🏽

It’s always refreshing to see you explaining...... thanks

Wow... I like the way you presenting this video. It looks so lively and the music too....
thank you!

I really enjoyed ur work...
great explanation of process, thx a lot) landscape photography is not about taking shots and you shows it through your videos
thanks!
Thank you for getting joy in the moment, no matter what the moment holds!
Thanks Kevin 👍
I've been watching your videos for a while.
I've learnt and reviewed long exposure photography through your videos, I put it into practice always trying to remember your advice and now, i'm loving it...
A huge thank to you !
Thanks a lot mate 🙏
You are my teacher from now on !
Happy to hear that! :-)
Love your positive attitude Attilio. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Larry!
I'm generally a short long exposure girl, but after seeing this, I really like both! I guess it depends on what I'm photographing. Grazie, Attilio!
I am sure you will enjoy the longer long exposures too. Ciao!
Not boring at all Attilio. Great images. Thanks
Thank you 🙏
The one at 11:32 is just breathtaking, superb. Thank you.
thanks a lot mate!
fredy ott I agree! It’s so beautiful!
Loved that final long exposure image with the balance between the colour of the rock and the milkiness of the water
thanks mate!
I only found your videos recently and I am really enjoying watching them. You are a great presenter.
Thanks 🙏

Thank you for another great video. Your instruction regarding the filters ISO and shutter speed was was very well done.
Thank you Jim!
I really enjoy looking at both exposures, your the videos are superb. Such a great learning tool, thank you!
Thanks Alan!
that long - long exposure is stuning! Congrats! i got to invest some Money in some good ND filters! Thank you for the vídeo Attilio!
thanks my friend!
This video really got me wanting to use mine more often!
Me too. Could you please test the NISI system? I wait for your test to buy
@@molopez619 that's good!
@@giacomonovara I might get a set of NiSI in a month or so...
I like the long long exposure.
👍
Very nice! Agree ...spending time in nature is amazing! Beautiful
Thank you 🙏

Thank you 😍
Long long! Again a great video. Love the calm atmosphere. Very inspiring!

I soooo hate flat weather light BUT it produces very interesting black and white photos with long exposure
Sometimes...
Great video
Thank you 🙏
I think the Long for me but it really depends on the situation your faced with, telly enjoy your videos 👏👏
