Both pictures were made using 2 stencils (leaf & wear(e)nature) and UV paint lit with UV light* ⭕️ How are you Hive❓ ▪️I’m showing you today my last exhibition installed : 🍃 wear(e)nature 🍁 #1shot #lensswap #wearenature #lightpainting ▪️If you wish to understand how I create these leaf portraits, just follow this link where you’ll find all the steps through the creation of those shots : https://peakd.com/hive-183855/@maximepateau/obsolette-hive-183855 ![Divider 5.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/lightpaintershub/23xVEcaSEcACVXNajKEE1o7WZT8waYwyX6Frn2zscPzosaSbEdJNBkXsmkramYTrnHH9q.png) 🍁 I’ve been wanting to do this installation for a few years now. ![503AE621-E1A6-44C5-A7FC-F033076DCA1F.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23xKxMPEVX64pioFdwRrKMBd9yPX19U3KMKDMP8455K3CShbDKtMak2inTr8wDLETBrdU.jpeg) ![DD5EF8F9-73FC-4204-B0C0-E686B3F24B08.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23xKxV9Nzbqri3CbeHWbPKREyhbmopEavDru7ojYZ91BtdntMoiFW93mixzQRordgdVMV.jpeg) 🍁 When I first saw the window wall inside of the building, I instantly knew there was a way to use the windows and play with the transparency, play with the sun shifting all day long and so, lighting the pictures from behind using sun light ☀️. 🍁 These Leaf Portrait Pictures (LPP), as I like to call them, are my way to say nature’s future is connected with ours. If we destroy nature (or when 😰), we won’t be able to survive for long. #nature #leaf #portrait #macro #LP #whitebackground #lensswap #LFLP As always, all the shots of the exhibition were made in 1 single exposure in complete darkness. ![1D194B2F-1BA2-4DA1-8FC2-FBA34E74BDDC.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23vsHwqUDigSuSv6H5uFUHpz1baqCKPJBeCrcMAmyeRvLgjgtca9qKgGTEh4ahrYApT9v.jpeg) ![C1541820-8E47-4E5A-81EA-BA06D00D6B51.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23xpEvnYsziR2Uk4Bq3XVZu89oZyUvxNgm3BZSGGBudBThVokQk7jChnZovax1Tq9ZBDR.jpeg) ![0ABDB3FA-B6F6-40BF-A224-58111C7F7458.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23yJRCmhVZwTGBXxJXsYihyXmxJEiM4uvP2gz9S1PSvmvxMcW8E1fi6KbQahVTFtuQzm5.jpeg) ![8B41EFB2-A452-4D8E-909B-6EF78C334E4B.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23wWyUTVHH5mie3nUZnUDndKy33CcrQXsgvKr8KCp6nRsLoeGRbg8ZMjGHyiWY9y3VCSp.jpeg) ![1EF8817C-0995-4F86-83A8-5CB293F1BA75.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/maximepateau/23y96BuvgpP3Q5XjDbchuaczV1RHxftWHoZS2AHm2fxgBBQxJdZBoYd87JdeGGfkPNNDn.jpeg) 🔦🎨 LP is MAGiK 🤪 I’ll end this post with a quote I love : 🌳 "Dans chaque forêt, il y a un arbre qui te correspond, pour ne pas te detruire, protege là" 🌳 ▪️Gilbert Choulet The quote is in French and might not be perfectly translated in English : 🌳 "In each forest, there is a tree that corresponds to you, so as not to destroy you, protect it" 🌳 ▪️Gilbert Choulet I made more than 100 Leaf Portrait Pictures (LPP) since I started working around this theme, this is a work in progress meaning I need and would love feedbacks (positive & negative) from you and/or ways to exhibit this, contacts who can help (…), please, s’il-vous-plaît 😉❗️ 🍃 If you have any questions, feel free to write them in the comments 😁 @maximepateau XP LiGHTS ✨ LiGHTPAINTING is MAGiK ✨ ![Divider 5.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/lightpaintershub/23xVEcaSEcACVXNajKEE1o7WZT8waYwyX6Frn2zscPzosaSbEdJNBkXsmkramYTrnHH9q.png) YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE LIGHTPAINTING HERE?
