Light Painting - Tutorial + Show and Tell

[milano_red]

I'm going to have to give this a try, thanks for the tutorial!

Did this one a while back took a bit to get the lighting pattern down:



The Exif is still attached, but if memory serves 13sec exp, f22 with a 100watt work light.

Thanks

im no photographer. i just went out in the garage and started shooting. i used my windows photo editor. just go out and play around with it.

wow, No doubt its awesome job. I also like photography but i am not good expert. I don't know what software you have used for it. Do you like to share something ??

[Chad G]

i gave it a go tonight. my white balance is way off it seems. maybe it has something to do with the "bluish" light from my led lights.

its alot of fun.

Finally did this right. Here is what I ended up with.

I'm interested in night car photography and I have tried to do this with small ~24 LED light. I wasn't really happy about the result. There left lines on the car from my light.. I will post some images below this text. maybe there is any solution to make a energy source for the outside shooting? I don't have a car so I can't transport electricity generator or car battery. Eh . thank you for advices and I hope you understanded me. If you didn't, tell me and I would try to explain it.

my attempt at doing this shiz...

[oprahhwinfreyy]

you guys with the super good quality shots, what sort of editing do you do to get it to look so.......idk,,,,, like it should belong on the manufacturers website.

my light paintings look dull and not reflective on the car.

Figured I'd bump this up with a few recent shots.

Great tutorial and work as well... Not trying to hi-jack the thread, I just figured I'd offer another example. This was done a few years back. In fact it is the first and only light painting I've ever done, for soon after this shot was taken I got my full blow lighting setup and didn't see a need to continue doing this. However it was very cool to learn the technique and apply its fundamentals.

Shutter Priority - 30sec.
