Back to Paris (part 24) - Lightpainting on Hive

Hi everyone,

When I visited this disused underground quarry with my guys Hive account@flav_explore & Captain Shlag in January 2024, I saw that spot and I promised myself not to leave this place without taking a couple of shots here.

This location was bigger than expected and we took a lot of time to explore it. We think that we saw about a third of the entire place so we definitely have to come back and visit all of it.

For that specific picture, I tried to manage with the natural light coming from the extraction well and a very open shutter. I used my iridescent magic wand and a tiny white LED to draw the abstract light-calligraphy :

WHAT IS LIGHTPAINTING?

Lightpainting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
