Admin Challenege - "Light Painting"

view profile

Chipmonkey (^o^) is a group moderator Chipmonkey (^o^) says:

Welcome to the second installment of the admin challenge, Light Painting. Light painting usually includes long exposure, dark space and some light source to "paint" your image.

Below you will see a few examples of light painting, most of which have some explanation of how they captured the shot. You can also check out this wikipedia article on light painting and this Flickr light painting group (among other places) for other examples and some helpful tips.

Don't be shy with your light sources - try as many as you can think of. (sparklers, glow sticks, a flash or a flashlight combined with colored gels, cell phone glow, laser pens, etc.)
