I had a lot of fun today; I was looking for a way to do something related to photography, in the end, I ended up doing something I had never done before in my life. I did what is known as light painting, but I also mixed this with what would be a self-portrait with long exposure.
What did happen is that, without knowing what I was doing, I had a lot of fun. In the first moment, there was a bit of work, since I'm not used to this kind of photography. What I did was to experiment; honestly, it was something new for me. So I take this opportunity to show you my first photos of this style, a bit green both in technique and photography 馃槰馃槄馃槀.
I placed the camera on a tripod in the doorway of the house, focusing on one of the walls. I set an aperture at f/22 and a speed of 30 seconds, adjusting the ISO to achieve the photograph I thought I had in my hands. I used my cell phone and, by moving it around, achieved the result I wanted. I also used the light to illuminate myself somehow, achieving a half ghostly effect, a mix between self-portrait, light painting and something that I still don't know how to fully describe. In the end, I used photography to have fun, enjoy life and feel good, which I think is the message I want to convey to all my friends and photography lovers, I hope you enjoy the images!
By the way I drew the word "Love" or at least that's what I tried to do. That's what I wish you all, lots of love.

Hoy me divert铆 mucho; estaba buscando la manera de hacer algo relacionado con la fotograf铆a , al final, termin茅 haciendo algo que nunca hab铆a hecho en mi vida. Hice lo que es conocido como light painting, pero tambi茅n mezcl茅 esto con lo que ser铆a un autorretrato con larga exposici贸n.
Lo que s铆 pas贸 es que, sin saber lo que estaba haciendo, me divert铆 much铆simo. En el primer momento, hubo un poco de trabajo, ya que no estoy acostumbrado a este tipo de fotograf铆a. Lo que hice fue experimentar; sinceramente, fue algo nuevo para m铆 . As铆 que aprovecho para mostrarles mis primeras fotos de este estilo, un poco verdes tanto en t茅cnica como en fotograf铆a 馃槰馃槄馃槀.
Coloqu茅 la c谩mara sobre un tr铆pode en el portal de la casa, enfocando a una de las paredes. Puse una apertura en f/22 y una velocidad de 30 segundos, ajustando el ISO para lograr la fotograf铆a que pensaba tener en mis manos. Utilic茅 mi tel茅fono celular y, movi茅ndolo, logr茅 el resultado que quer铆a. Tambi茅n emple茅 la luz para iluminarme de alguna manera, logrando un efecto medio fantasmag贸rico, una mezcla entre autorretrato, light painting y algo que a煤n no s茅 describir del todo. Al final, utilic茅 la fotograf铆a para divertirme, disfrutar la vida y sentirme bien, lo cual creo que es el mensaje que quiero transmitir a todos los amigos y amantes de la fotograf铆a. 隆Espero que disfruten las im谩genes!
Por cierto dibuj茅 la palabra "Love " o por lo menos eso intent茅 hacer . Eso es lo que les deseo a todos, mucho amor.
