“Light graffiti”

View On Black

My first try of a “light graffiti” photo. I used my VisibleDust loupe for it. After looking through some flickr explore photos I randomly searched the web for photos and ended up at this article about Pablo Picasso making light graffitis (LIFE Magazine).

  • This photo is just amazing. I've always been curious about how to make light graffiti like Picasso did, but I have no idea how to do it. Maybe I should just give it a try. ^^
  • Theoretically it's easy ^^ Dark room, long exposure, low ISO, use the self-timer and a bright pointy light (like LEDs). For frame freezing use the flash on the second curtain I think. But doing it in real life you have to experiment a bit until you will got some nice results.

    Next time I will try some different colors and maybe with a little help of a friend to "draw" more ;-)
