How does Piers at derestricted.com take photos like this:
With all the light like that but the subject in focus?
Any ideas how I can take amazing photos like this with a simple lil CanonIXUS.

use nightshot portrait w/flash.
basically it captures the flash as well as a delayed shutter. The flash is on the face while the trailing lights are created because he moved the camera while there is a delayed shutter thing.

thanks spongebob, will give it a go.

..hanging out at gay clubs looks like a contributing factor to this image.

longinsh exposure (slow shutter), flash and the subject stays still. Fuck I take this sort of pic all the time by mistake.
:D

you could always just overlay two different pics...one with the streaks one with the face?

Yeah nighshot but also try to put your flash option on SL and your camera mode on A - it will work look at www.holditdown.org - History section > Mr Scruff (crowd shot - I did it)
- Ginja0
belly the idea is to try and only use the camera, i know it would be easy to fake in photoshop
- Ginja0
That crowd shot is awsome Laurent

I have a nearly 3 year old ixus Camera, set on manual, then choose the flash mode with the icon of the person with a light behind. Just cycle through the modes. Then when you take a photo move the camera a bit. It doesnt always work though. makes people look like ghosts a lot of the time.

I have spent many a drunken evening in that mode fucking about with short shutter speeds piers!
- Ginja0
so piers, its nothing todo with shutter speeds or exp. and stuff? i can't take this sort of photo and can only dream of it. like most i manage todo it when drunk. they are cool photos though dude. always visit your site to see what youve been shooting.

50 ISO
slow shutter speed
- bolus0
