Hello, /p/. I love traffic lights since I was a kid, and I'm trying to take pictures of traffic lights. I'm still learning the basics of photography, so any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope one day I can afford a professional camera, but for now they're shot on my shitty phone camera. Thanks.
This is one of the last remaining 3M traffic signals in use, and I wanted to capture it's uniqueness at this angle. You can only see the current light of you're looking directly at it's direction.
This was in a fairly popular vacation town; it is still using a prototype LED 8' light for a green.
This light while not new, had it's bulbs changed recently after some maintenance work was done on the road recently.
This one is a bit sloppy, as I finished a 10hr shift prepping for the new subway to open. The light was installed after the station was renovated.
>>4497005>>4497009Apologies on the photos being at the wrong axis. They looked normal on my photos app. I don't know why they got rotated.
I got this on the new train that opened on the weekend.
>>4497011Nice autism. Crop the photos a tiny little bit then save them. They will keep their orientation when posting afterwards.
i agree, nice autism, it isn't my area of interest but still interestingtraffic lights and tail lights are annoying as hell on digital to get accurate colors of, you either underexpose to hell and everything else needs +3 exposure in post, or you expose for the scene and the red lights get all fucked from overloading the color sensors and look totally wrong compared to what your eyes see
>>4497152I've had problems like that, and it's becoming an annoyance when taking night shots. This picture I got of a light makes my camera look like it has a bad astigmatism. I'm still learning about exposure on my phone, but I am planning to buy a camera for more detailed shots.
>>4497151Thanks for the tip, I appreciate the advice. I cropped this photo of a Fortran 12-8-8 that I took when seeing my friend. The light isn't broken, I timed the photo right when the light was changing phases. Sorry if the photo looks off a bit. It was -26° that day, and I had no gloves.
