[OC] Ambulance

I'm back on my BS 🤪 · 3 months ago

Creative and outstanding execution!

Also, where do ambulances use blue lights? In the US, they use red and yellow, while blue and red are for law enforcement.

where do ambulances use blue lights?

Many European countries have them in blue, but this is in Sweden, linnegatan 28 in Göteborg.

So like, what, did you just recognize this?

@Akasazh@feddit.nl · edit-2 3 months ago

No but the street name boards are in plain view, and combined with the name of the jewelry store it was not hard to find.

Well found! Haha

Thank you! It was all a lucky shot.

I was out shooting long exposure shots of streetcars when a couple of ambulances passed by right where I was shooting. I just took the shot with the settings I already had and it all turned out great.

This is in Sweden. We have blue lights on police cars, ambulances and fire trucks here :)

Love it. I’m somewhat surprised that the LEDs doing their pulse width modulation thing wasn’t picked up in the photo. Maybe DC driven lights are less prone to it than AC, or maybe these have a better power supply than most cheapie home AC powered bulbs.

Thank you!

I have no idea about the LED pwm thing. It may be that they are doing it, but the blue lights are just so overexposed that that detail was lost.

In the top ten photos I’ve ever seen. Might be the best ever.

I’m glad you liked it!
