Tension XIII

thanks for your lovely comment jillijude! Light painting is essentially shootin slow exposure in total darkness and illuminating parts of the frame with a torch or other moveable lightsource. check out Roy and Ove’s work for some absolutely AMAZING examples, and, if you are interested in more of a read, have a look here
There was a challenge on using this technique here, and lots of questions re the technique get asked and answered in this thread. My earlier image ‘The Burning Bush’ is also made using this technique…

Thanks Mary! It was a lot of experimenting and trying it to see what effect came from what as I’ve not done much light painting before, but I think the technique works quite well with the elements in the image…

Thanks for your care friend – interestingly – I haven’t cut myself on these special “broken for photography props bits of glass” EVER…. must be some special glass that breaks without those terrible razor-sharp edges… (it’s an old fish tank cover glass)

John – thank you very very much for such a response to my work! I do try to do what comes from ‘me’ – not anyone else, and I have been learning very very hard all of this year since I joined RB.
I am very very pleased you find this ‘different’ (and whether a childhood is ‘bad’ does, in the end, depend on what each of us makes of it – doesn’t it?)
