night shift

As darkness descends, I roam with flash and flashlight looking...always looking to paint with light.

Light painting is experimental. You work in dark rooms or outside at night and use hand held flash or flashlights to selectively light the subject. This requires long exposures so a tripod is essential.

You say, "Light painting is experimental". I say the experiment is a success. Really fantastic stuff here. Appreciate the explanations you have provided as well. I have just scratched the surface of your galleries, will be back. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent and creative picture taking. I could benefit from seeing the full exif on your pictures to help me "paint with light:,
By the way, is that a phrase you coined or was it out there already?
Mattias Backström 11-Jan-2009 22:56
I took the slideshow tour and was amazed, and then I was amazed again. And again :) It might sound as if I'm easily amazed, but when it comes to be amazed by photos I'm pretty picky. So this was a real treat for me, and I'll take the tour one more time just to get that amazing amazed feeling. Wonderful series, well done! V
