Mauro Diaz

This is a new edit from Mauro. We met this summer in Puerto Escondido and the kid is always shredding and smiling. I’m excited he chose to use a couple of the clips I got, and I’m more excited for those of you who aren’t familiar with him to watch him flare up.

Night Photography, Same same but different

Here are three different renderings of last nights sky. First I took 720 images over a course of 6 hours. They are all shot at F2.8 ISO 400 EXP 30″ and here is what I did with them.

First is a Nightlapse in which I sequentially organize the photos “side by side”(NO STACKING) and give each a playing time duration equivalent to what our eye perceives as video motion.

Second is a composite image in which I “stacked”(layered) all 720 photos directly on top of each other to create the same affect as if I had just done one single 6 hour exposure photograph. I love single long exposure shots but one benefit to taking lots of individual images is that it allows you to create the other two styles of images I am showing here. 

Third is a composition of all 720 images in which each photo is “stacked” on top of the prior photo starting with image one and adding all 720 photos on top at a time interval that our eye perceives as video motion.

Enjoy the nigh sky!

 

 
  
 
 

“SHOW ME YOUR PASSPORT…”

Coco Nogales and Oscar Moncada have long ruled the roost in Puerto Escondido and rightfully garnered immense amounts of respect and coverage world wide. What you might not know though, is that these six guys(titled in order of appearance) Jimel Corzo, Angelo Lozano, Mike Velasco, Sasha Donnanno, Marcial Monreal and Cesar Petroni are their neighbors and you might catch them “checking passports” on super crowded days at Playa Zicatela as well.
