Experimental | Light Writing

[Aukiman]

One of my first attempts at light writing, just so happened to have two army issue red 12 hr Cyalume's in my pack so put them to some use for this shot.

Hopefully practice makes perfect and I can come up with some more shots.

Materials used in this experiment :

Jen
Two red cyalumes
Tripod
Camera
Some Car 'park light' illuminationApt f2.8, Exp ~ 4sec

wow that looks so cool, how do you do that ?

[Aukiman]

Thanks Mikki :), its only my first try so it was a little plain. Hoping to improve.

I actually got the ideas and technique off Nix at GrandInferno, he has some awesome examples of it and some great tips on how to do it at www.grandinferno.net (http://www.grandinferno.net) --->

His light graffitti tutorial article is [ H E R E . . . (http://www.grandinferno.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f =29&t=121) ]

its only a quick registration and u can get access to all his tutorials on all sorts of stuff, I'm not kidding either they're some of the best tutorials I have read

PS he has a long history with graphics work and media and actually does it as a job so his Tuts are from experience :)
