What dumplings, a yoga teacher, boats and a wheel have in common? Actually nothing, except my intention to use these photos to post for the Tech of the Month of Perelincolors, which she hosts simultaneously at the Photo Rehab of this blog, and at her blog.
This month she took us through a play with the ISO value, reminding us that: “exposure is determined by a combination of three factors: shutter speed, aperture and ISO value, or in other words, how long the shutter is open, how wide is opened and how the sensitivity of the sensor behind the shutter is calibrated. ”
I choose these three images, each shot with different settings but without flash.

Meet Daphne, my lovely yoga teacher.
This was a common view during a night’s boat trip during the Sail 2015 Tall Ships event, held in August in Amsterdam.

I love how the ferris wheel lights up the scene.

Night Photography is such a challenge. Nicely done on the image that gives twilight a boost with the ferry wheel.

I fully agree with you Sally! It is not easy, at least for me. When looking for photos for this post, I realized that I hardly ever did night photography. I made some last month to practice long exposure but not much more. Thank you for the encouragement.

Great job! Most of the time, I can’t hand-hold at 1/80 . Your dumplings are really sharp! And, at first i thought the title said “dumpy yoga teacher.” 🙂

I really like the picture of your yoga teacher. She looks like a great yoga teacher and the high ISO gives the image a sort of old-fashioned look.

She is the best teacher ever, and a fantastic person. I have shot this inside the school and the natural light was not enough, hence the high ISO. I left it as is to post here, but I have post processed this and the others in several ways, and it looks great. Well, she looks great with or without editing. Some people are simply beautiful.
Thank you!

Lovely photos, Lucile. The nightshot is so clear and colourful – even with the use of a tripod, I stick to shots taken during the day!
