light through my eyes

    Seems that having fun with light and long exposure shots never ends ... Especially during winter time, when I rarely have a chance to take my camera out in the sun.

      That's very cool, I'm just wondering how you do that exactly ...

    12. gnackgnackgnack (63 months ago | reply)

      Hi, thanks for the comment.
      Set the camera to long exposure (somewhere between 5 and 30 seconds). And then play with a flash light in the darkened room.
      Give it a try if you can, that's a lot of fun!!

      What about the colors? Were they manually added with Photoshop ?

    14. gnackgnackgnack (61 months ago | reply)

      Yes they were.

    15. poalamazout (61 months ago | reply)

      Thanks for the information, I'll try it soon or late. Nice idea in all cases ;)

      How did you change how thick the light was?

    17. gnackgnackgnack (52 months ago | reply)

      In fact for this one I was using a flash light and, the difference between the thick part and the thin would be when the light was facing the camera directly, as compared to when the light would be at a small angle, not outputting all of its light into the camera.

      hey, we've seeing your pictures and we loved them all.
      we were wondering if we could use some of them in this proyect called alpha - its a non-profit program were young people get to discuss the existence of god, the reason why we're here, what's our purpose in life; it's a christian program. Each season we work on a different theme to keep it interesting and this time we chose to call it Alpha-Light - so, as you can see, we could really use this awesome pictures of yours in our invitation cards and we'd love to have your permission first. here's my e-mail: mariaisabelac@hotmail.com, and our blog; www.alphajovenes.com
      Thank you.
