Hello jfrancis,

This is a photograph, no? Where is that place that they turn the three lights on to control the traffic? ; P

Long exposure?

or 3 long poses blended..?

I think it's interesting that the falloff is so much quicker with the blue/green color.

It's all over tumblr and other sites and often described as a long exposure photo, but I can't find the original source.

Might be LED-based with lenses that throw the light in a tighter beam?

Could be. Also the long-exposure throws a twist into it. E.g., was the fog there for the whole shot? What time of day is it?
Very intriguing

German photographer Lucas Zimmermann has recently taken a series of incredible long exposure traffic light photos, on a foggy night in Weimar, Germany…

Why is that volumetric so noisy? What's the material on it?

It's not due to material, but to a geometry/transformation problem: http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/view ... 89#p376989.

Ah ok, good to know

Yes Mihai it was a normals problem. Here's a much clearer image @ SL 25
