Photos: Light painting

in photography •  8 years ago 

Hello :)) today I want to show you photos that were taken at my university (University of Graphic Arts, Zagreb).

If I'm not mistaken, there's a lot of photographers on Steemit so I'm sure that most of you already heard of this photographic technique. Light painting is all about long exposure and, in most cases, hand-held source of light. Usually there's also some subject that is illuminated for few seconds (in the first photo the guy was illuminated with a phone flash for 2 seconds and he had to be perfectly still so that was fun :D ).

All light sources you can see on these photographs were mostly from our phone. That colorful light that's surrounding my collegaue is from a free app downloaded from Google Play.

This was our very first attempt to make a good light painting photos and we were all happy with them :D and I'm sure that I'll try this tecnique on my own this week!

Enjoy and have a nice day, PerkyNanobot :)

The guy did a great job on being still. Love me some long exposures. ❤ awesome job. More like this is required.

If you look closely you can see that he actually moved a little :D and thank you!

I am on my mobile now. And on mobile looks he was completely still and on focus. 😉

I have only tried light painting a couple of times but must try it again soon

Well it is kind of hard at the beginning (we had trouble with staying in focus) but after only a few shots it gets so much easier! Not to mention how fun it is :D

ohh yes it really is fun to do

Hi, great job. I am starting with light painting by my self and I was wondering what kind of brushes did you use for these pics ?
