Not so fresh from a week of being a wage slave once again, Friday night was time to get out in the dark and shoot something before I go stir crazy! Tonight we visited a newly discovered abandoned factory near to where I live for a spot of lightpainting. This time I took my camera rotation tool and for once I appear to have got the alignment spot on!

This was the best of the bunch using a Godox AD200 with my "quadrablaster" gadget, a device which splits the light from the flash in to four different colours. I still haven't quite worked out why the blue isn't more intense than I would like:

This was another version using two colours, both from old fabric softener bottles. The blue one I spotted in the supermarket and when I got home I immediately decanted the bottle's contents and cut it up to make a gel over the flashgun:

And finally this was made with just the supermarket fabric softener blue by itself:

All of the above images were shot in one photographic exposure and are not Photoshop creations.

About me:
I usually specialise in shooting lightpainting images but occasionally dabble in urbex and artistic model photography. I'm always on the lookout for someone to collaborate with; please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to create art.
