Lightsaberd shoot

[BLVCKmamba]

Tuesday night after our weekly gtg at buffalo wild wings, my buddy decided to shoot the cars and try this idea of light painting the cars. Fun to watch, but even better results. So far only one picture is ready so here it is.

I'll upload more as they become available

thats so sick

ok so they are bigger now, sorry about that..

you need a tripod to hold the camera, and the surrounding area has to be dark dark dark! you need a light saber or some sort of long light bulb, and you simply click the shutter open, and walk along a certain area of the car and wherever the light hits, will be caught in the shutter, and then close the shutter to cut off the light

Even sweeter with a bigger sized picture!

A lot of guys use a spot light too. I really want to try it out.

If it isn't raining tonight, and I can find my damned tri-pod, I'm going to practice this with my D90.

A six second exposure time doesn't give you a whole lot of time to noodle around with your light. So you better have a good idea of what you want to do with it before you take the shot.
