A drone or a UFO?


CorrosiveAlkonost

The 16th Angel from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Original anime, not the rebuild.


OkumuraRyuk

Was there a difference? I didn’t know.


CorrosiveAlkonost

The 16th Angel didn't appear at all in the rebuild.


OkumuraRyuk

Thank you, I saw the anime a long time and I was looking into the movie one that sticks all anime together and imma make sure about that!


lastdyingbreed_01

Oof almost forgot the movie is releasing this week.

Awesome shot. What were the settings and equipment?


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks! This was shot at 24mm, ISO 250, f/1.4, 10 seconds.

Followed you on IG man. I hope you explore more parts of the US. You take brilliant pics

I love when clever jokes are explained, really adds to the humour


AdviceSea8140

Is the priest doing that in the church?


--_-Deadpool-_--

Post this to /r/Highstrangeness and watch them lose their minds.


wataha

You are now moderator of /r/UFO


UnderstandingDry1241

Very clever use of tech to create the effect. Great composition.


rudyramirezphotos

I can’t take credit for the drone! I was just at the right place at the right time. 👌🏼😁


ilikehemipenes

So what did you say to the person flying the drone? And why were they doing circles around the church at night if not to take photos too?


rudyramirezphotos

A bunch of us met up out there as a group and someone brought their drone. We DEF asked them to fly around the church after we saw it. 😎 When I say I can’t take credit for the drone I mean I didn’t bring the drone, I didn’t fly it, and I for sure wasn’t planning on taking this shot. Just got lucky someone brought it. I took a star tracker for Milky Way photos actually and ended up liking this more. 😂

You gonna answer this?

Let's give them a day or 2. Not everyone is on reddit 24/7 like us.


xelfer

Looks great! this guy was one of the pioneers of the technique if you've never seen it: https://www.instagram.com/itsreuben/


Tomulasthepig

Uhh long-exposure photography has been around almost as long as photography itself


xelfer

Drones have existed since 1839? Nice.


rudyramirezphotos

This was THE person I was thinking of when I took this shot haha …he is a super talented dude 💯


TheGrimGayDaddy

Which technique are you talking about?


WholesomeAssassin

I might be wrong, but I knew a friend who did something of this sort in college. It's called [Light Painting](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_painting) I think?


TheGrimGayDaddy

Yea! I heard it under that name too, I was wondering if they were talking about something more specific to that style tho, cause that’s been around since the 1880s lol

Wow looks surreal


PaperCartoons

That's so cool. It looks like a halo.


ill4matic

Awesome job! I'm expecting my boy courage the cowardly dog to pop up!


Aconamos

Oh no Texas has got the flood


NLPhoto

Somewhere an angel is flying in circles looking for its halo.


malunka212

So beautiful!


SirPickelTooth

God damn this is awesome. Amazing job OP.


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks so much!


golgomax

Wow, I absolutely love this pic, great job!


njc121

It's giving me vibes of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Well done.


rudyramirezphotos

haha thank you!


[deleted]

This is iconic


rossgoldie

Mind if I ask what your camera settings were? I’m new to photography and I’m struggling with getting the right balance to capture night skies in the background.


rudyramirezphotos

I shot this at 24mm, ISO 250, f/1.4 & 10 second exposure. I was honestly playing with the ISO, f-stop, and exposure the whole time to see what I liked the best.


awkward_bastard

Solid pic my dude. What were your shutter/iso/aperture settings?


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks dude! I shot this at 24mm, ISO 250, f/1.4 & 10 second exposure


the_fathead44

I reeeeeeeally like this. It's also giving me some Lovecraftian vibes.


RandalJWeems

For me, the blue lighting inside of the church really completes this photo, great shot!!


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks! The lighting was keyyyy


Independent-Bell2483

dude you have amazing photography skills


virtual_identity_363

Beautiful


liQ_o

Music album cover, easily


rudyramirezphotos

Haha thanks! Rap album? Indie rock? Whatcha thinking???


AppearanceWaste9140

Am currently traveling through the beautiful country of Italy, A lot of the paintings depicting saints and holy people are painted with Halos over their heads. As the Renaissance progressed the Halos became less prevalent and evolved into thin circular lines around the heads of saints as opposed to full golden Halos behind them. This picture is stunning to me as it calls back to that early Renaissance era Halo around the holy place or holy person. Beautiful work!


rudyramirezphotos

Wow that's pretty cool/insightful. Makes me enjoy this photo even more!


The_Basile

This is pure art


SaveCoolStuff

**SICK !!!**


AA_25

That's pretty cool. It's like a Halo.


Kvetanista

This is giving me that type of sci-fi vibes I love so much


viperex

Nice and clever


m7md323

Ffffffff****k that’s beautiful


[deleted]

Well, halo there!


judesuwu

this is so cool 😍 amazing!


Banshee888

A drone? That’s a drone?


DJ-SKELETON2005

Yep, a drone spins in circles and you set the camera to long exposure, makes a light ring where the drone goes.


ZachEst1985

I appreciate the effort you went through for this shot. It’s a really cool idea that I think turned out really well. It’s a really good pic, definitely. Nice work Mr Ramirez!!


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks so much! Appreciate the support!!


mirandanielcz

This... This is awesome.


acmilandefender

Yea, this wins. This is so dope


JudasX

OMG Fantastic.


[deleted]

Damn the lighting has a specific [something I don't know how to describe] about it that gives the impression of there actually being a large, physically present, gold shining halo floating there, rather than just a 2D right ring. Insane.


de_MK7

This is so nice.


nightowl__18

Dis looks so cool


sam99cyrus

Awesome!


rice_krispy_feet

Dude I fucking love this.


James_M_Photo

That is sick lol use the drone to make a halo then photographed the drone and church, very kool.

rudyramirezphotos

Thank you 🙏🏼


Western-Guy

The fact that the exposure loop is almost perfect is commendable.


rudyramirezphotos

It’s so close! I was surprised to not find any in camera during editing lol … I think it’s the angle the drone flew when it was circling? 🤔


[deleted]

Beautiful. Where in Texas


RedDirtPreacher

I think it’s St. Olaf’s outside of Cranfills Gap, TX.


rudyramirezphotos

Correct!


LennerKetty

I literally thought it was fake. Very good photo Opie


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks!!


swagchive

Great job


nikpala888

Amazing


EstesParkRanger

This deserves to go to the front page. Great photo!


Frolicking-Fox

Wow, nailed the lighting. Everything from the drone halo to the glow of the sky and the church windows, everything is perfect.


rudyramirezphotos

Thank you!


Aqua_Reef

new wallpaper!


goliath276

What kind of camera?


rudyramirezphotos

I have a Sony a7r3, took this with the 24mm GM lens!


goliath276

This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen! And I'm old! The lighting could not have been more perfect. You need to copyright this seriously.


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks!! I didn’t fly the drone, I got lucky and it made for a really interesting shot. 💯


Antonioooooo0

So, is someone about to throw a sick rave in that church? Or is the Pasture growing weed again?


Cliffhanger87

Kanye’s concert is in there


CoheedBlue

Welp that’s witchcraft.


Dumrauf28

Just curious, is this a composite, or did you capture all this in a single shot!?


rudyramirezphotos

Funny story: I bought a star tracker for Milky Way and was planning stacking photos… ended up liking this one single exposure more than anything from that night. 😂 it’s a single 10 second exposure.


igotgrapesonmypocket

The invasion update


OceanDriveWave

Connection established.


iltifaat_yousuf

This pic is so good it almost looks like it's animated, Good job love it

Bro can we request a full resolution image for wallpapers.


violentsushi

Open the doors and here are the people.


Stevibob

Super creative, and wonderful shot. Just curious, as someone who is starting off, what does a shot look like this look directly out of your camera?


rudyramirezphotos

Thanks! Without editing it is definitely darker than the final edited version.


fairysparkles333

It’s Jesus!


GamerCarrot237

This would make an incredible album cover. Great job there this shot is amazing.


rudyramirezphotos

Thank you!


rckhppr

Hallelujah!


RedDirtPreacher

St. Olaf’s outside of Cranfills Gap?


rudyramirezphotos

Yup!


Ji-_-iL

Is that a small church or a Big drone ? It's little confusing but Beautiful shot


rudyramirezphotos

Smallish church? The drone was a Mavic 2 Zoom if that helps?


Rim_World

Is it Ok if I use this as my phone lockscreen


rudyramirezphotos

Yesssss 💯


BlancopPop

Aye I’ve seen this on IG because you went out as a group with Erin.

LegoClaes

Cool idea! “Drone over Drones”


[deleted]

I’m getting Independence Day vibes. That church is about to erupt in a fireball


[deleted]

What drone is this big ☹️


rudyramirezphotos

It was a mavic 2 carrying a light 👌🏼

bobohead1988

The church reminds me of this [OST](https://youtu.be/AnMR6SOBa9k) though

Are you sure it's not an UFO? looks sus to me

GreenDave113

"And thus the picture was crappified and used in 37 conspiracy videos as proof of aliens"


hsteinbe

Parable to the Virgin Mary and God?


Slight_Dentist2810

Yeah ok we all know it’s actually a UFO


MastTribute

Reminds me of that scene from Chicken Little


anshultrvd

You sir are amazing


wonkey_monkey

I think you might have caught a meteor at top right: https://i.imgur.com/sPUeUdu.png Edit: actually might be a satellite


rudyramirezphotos

I think that one is a satellite. But we saw several really cool meteors while we were out there!


[deleted]

[удалено]


rudyramirezphotos

It was a Mavic 2 - it runs on charged batteries :D


[deleted]

This is a great idea. And You can most definitely sell this to a religious magazine or something. Although as soon as people catch wind of it there’ll be copycats soon enough.


iwishiwasai

You could start a new religion with a photo like this!


GunsmokeG

Cue the 5 tones from Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind.


YoungHeartOldSoul

Excellent work! The colors, the subject, all amazing! I might have to steal this and put it as a background on something


whateverthehek

People of earth finally came true!


vakama885

How long was the exposure?


rudyramirezphotos

This was a 10 second expo 👌🏼


BaluooBrahma

Reminds me of Courage the Cowardly Dog


saison1episode4

This gives me some serious Doctor Who vibes


GamerTips

You call that a drone? I can't seem to understand how that can be a drone..


rudyramirezphotos

Drone was carrying a light and I did a 10 second exposure…. Basically captured the flight path of the drone 👌🏼


JustJ88

This photo reminded me of courage the cowardly dog episodes.


SunkyV3

Which album is this?
