Fun Friday - Light painting

Good Morning i hope life is treating you well

I am continuining with my Fun Friday post, but this week a bit different, as although I do have a couple of brick building sets to take photos of and share Due to a variety of reasons i havent got around to it and I wont bore you with the details but all is good for me so nothing to worry about.

So this week I thought I would share something else I have fun doing which is light painting

As I mentioned recently in another post With the sunrise gettign later slowly day by day, I am still heading out early so have time to play around with some light painting, before the colors of sunrise start appearing, if they do at all, we have had a lot of foggy mornings of recent

What I generally do is get to the spot i am going to for my morning walk and photos, then do light painting for a little bit then getting into more serious walking stopping to take the odd photo

The previous post was an oops that didnt go as planned post, the shots I will share today are ones I am nore happy with but always striving to improve.

For light painting, I have my camera setup on a tripod as they are all long exposures the shortest of these ones was 48 seconds, and then I have tow RGB critter flashlights and various light painting tools from Ants ON aa Melon which I attach to them, and then move them around trying to create cool patters,

Here is one shot taken by the fort

you may wonder why I have two of the rgb critters, its so I can have different light painting tools on each one and have them set to different color patterns and switch from one to the other during the exposure

Now still in Fort Taber park for the next one but this time on the beach

These take a while and not all come out as planned, so most mornings I only do between 3 and 5 light painting shots
