Alvin Tenpo > Spark Stoves Barn, Palomares Road, Castro Valley, CA I've seen this barn on my cycling trips on Palomares Road. The Spark Stove painting on the barn has always looked so interesting to me that I thought I'd try shooting it at night. The moon on this night was 96% full (Waxing Gibbous moon) illuminating the left side of the barn. The front of the barn was lit by a street light at the intersection of Palomares Road and Paloverde Road.
Alvin Tenpo > Abandoned Garage, Point Cabrillo While visiting Point Cabrillo Lighthouse, we discovered this abandoned garage. I thought that it had the potential to make a nice night photography subject. We returned later in the evening. To the eye, it was much, much darker than the capture shows. The moon phase was in it's first quarter, lighting the side of the barn. One quick pop of the spot light, pointing to the ground cast a broader, softer light to illuminate the front of the garage. The interior was lit with multiple pops of a blue gel covered strobe. I used a higher ISO of 2000, f5.6 for 30 sec.
Alvin Tenpo > Georgia Pacific Rail Barn, Old Lumber Mill, Fort Bragg, CA We had parked our car in the public parking lot behind the Company Store in Fort Bragg to go to dinner at the Mendo Bistro. The parking lot is located between the tracks for the Skunk Train and the Georgia Pacific Lumber Mill that was shut down in 2002. After our meal at Mendo Bistro, the sun had long set, but there was plenty of light provided by flood lights from the security gate. The rail barn is on G-P property behind a chain link fence. It was a windy, cold and clear night when this image was captured. 8 second exposure at f5.6 at ISO 1000. The G-P property is a non-performing asset and up for sale. However, the property is fraught with toxic waste cleanup issues. Article from the SF Chronicle: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/02/16/MNGOLBBO5R1.DTL
Alvin Tenpo > Ambient light was provided by a parking lot light. Spot light with red gel to highlight the window. Popped my strobe with blue gel filter on the tree branches and leaves. From experimentation, it seems that a 60 second exposure at f5.6, ISO 200 is about right for ambient light created by a street light.
Alvin Tenpo > Old barn window. Second attempt at light painting. The exterior was light painted by a friendly assistant, while I popped a flash inside to paint the interior. Red gel filter on a spot light for the exterior. Using my strobe flash off camera with a blue gel filter, I popped multiple flashes to light up the interior.

Spark Stoves Barn, Palomares Road, Castro Valley, CA

I've seen this barn on my cycling trips on Palomares Road.
The Spark Stove painting on the barn has always looked so
interesting to me that I thought I'd try shooting it at night.

The moon on this night was 96% full (Waxing Gibbous moon)
illuminating the left side of the barn.

The front of the barn was lit by a street light at the
intersection of Palomares Road and Paloverde Road.
