Looking for a sexy subject for my Composition
A few weeks back I went on one of the tiny meet-ups with a hand full of talented Light Painters at the Airfield Schoenwalde. @Lichtkunstfoto, 
Vor in paar Wochen war ich ja zum "allerletzten Mal" in Schönwalde mit @Lichtkunstfoto,
The Spot
The cool thing is when you have a proper permit you can simply drive up just outside the hangar. We parked right there. I thought while everyone else is busy Light Painting the Audi TT (sure you will see images of that one soon) I can try a few quick light paintings. Like Sven's car (see below). One of my subjects for the night was the tire that was sitting right in the center of one of the old hangars. Right in the middle.
Das Coole ist, wenn man die entsprechenden Genehmigung hat, kann man direkt vor den Hangar fahrenund gleich da parken. Ich dachte, während alle anderen mit dem Audi TT beschäftigt sind, kann ich ein paar schnelle Light Paintings ausprobieren. Wie Svens Auto (siehe unten). Eines meiner Ideen / Themen für die Nacht war der Reifen, der genau in der Mitte eines der alten Hangars saß. Genau in der Mitte.
Look at this f..ing thing sitting there to be Light Painted. Screaming for some attention and Light.
I'll take care of you - no worries.
Schaut euch das verdammte Ding an, sitzt quasi da, um mit Licht bemalt zu werden. Schreit nach etwas Aufmerksamkeit und Licht. Kannste haben.
At first, just test how the tire behaves with the light. Dark objects reflect less light but when it's wet there will be shiny edges and some other reflections one may not anticipate. So let's test first - then rotate.
Alls erstas natürlich einfacher Beleuchtungstest. Mal sehen, wie sich der Reifen mit dem Licht verhält. Dunkle Objekte reflektieren weniger Licht, aber wenn es nass ist, gibt es glänzende Kanten und einige andere Reflexionen, die man vielleicht nicht erwartet. Also erstmal testen - dann rotieren.
That was not super simple. I did have to look out for the appropriate angle not to get awkward reflections on the tire.
Once that was all good I rotated the camera during the exposure of 147 seconds in 12 equal steps, while the camera was set to ISO 100 and the Laowa 12mm F2.8 Zero D Lens was dialed in on F11. Thats what you see in the featured Light Painting image on top!
Das war nicht ganz einfach. Allerdings musste ich auf den richtigen Winkel achten, um keine unangenehmen Reflexionen auf dem Reifen zu bekommen.
Dann hatte ich ja alles was ich braucht und es ging los, drehte ich die Kamera während der Belichtung in 12 Schritten was 147 Sekundendauerte. Die Kamera war auf ISO 100 eingestellt und das Laowa 12 mm F2,8 Zero D-Objektiv auf F11 eingestellt war.
Oh wow what's that cool Graffiti? Ok, let's not get distracted here.
Ok that's Bonus Material then
Oh sehr schön. Cooles Graffitti. Nein nicht ablenken lassen.
OK Bonus Bilder 😎
Ops there was an extra Light Painting .. surprise for Sven. Everyone is focused on that Audi inside the Hangar and I found this old Camry to light up.
Ops doch noch schnell was anderes gemacht. Kleine Überraschung für Sven. Schnell mal sein Auto eingeleuchtet währen alle anderen den Audi ablichten.
As the featured shot is a great example of a camera rotation Light Painting you may be interested to find out more.

Impressions of our last trip
Just to get an idea of the location you can check the video from our last visits.
Hier gibts noch ein paar Impressionen von unserem letzten Trip. Bisschen wie ein LocationCheckVideo mit Foto- & Videomaterial.

This was us in the beginning. Talking and chatting and some people playing with the flashlights.
I hope you found these images inspirational. If you have more questions please do not hesitate. I am happy to share my knowledge.
If you think this is Spam, why did you read this far, and why the fuck bother! Move on from your self-righteous mind state and bury yourself. Don't bother about what others may find interesting. Just stay in your bubble and ...
