Writing with Light

Photography means Writing with Light...and I decided to take it literally! Whenever I see a coloured light I start playing with it: here you have some of my experiments (no post processing) - my light source were the lights on my Christmas tree, the lights in a Luna Park and traffic lights. I hope you like them!

love your photos! especially the first few rows. were they the result of lots of clicks and playing around with movement and different shutter speeds and wiggling the lights around? brill!

These are great, some are very abstract clever images. Have you tried photographing off the TV? I tried this weekend, music concerts with strobe lighting can produce some interesting imagery take a look! http://www.pbase.com/nparker/tv_imagery I have more images to download soon.Cheers for the comments on my site.

Hi Elisa,
Great work. Are some of these fireworks? I have done some along the same line with fireworks and really liked the results. If they're not you may want to try that this 4th of July. Check out my gallery if you get a chance (james2002).

Bravo encore.
