Being in the studio and all the lights are blacked out gives you endless time and allows you to forget time. You can play for as long as you want. Here again with some friends from the Yoga group. The advantage here is that everybody has enough body tension and control to hold somewhat still. Not o much in this image as you can see if you take a closer look. Because if you move while I shed light on you you will leave a shadow in some areas.
Even though this was a relatively short exposure of only 4.3 seconds it was long enough to see that she moved at the moment I passed her with the light. Room for improvement. The camera was set to ISO 100 and the lens to F5.6 at 20mm.
So just like normal, you see a single exposure with no Photoshop trickery or effects from the computer.
For that, I used two T9 Tube guards that a pretty much just long plastic tubes. I stuck a flashlight into it and waved it around during the long exposure. So simple. Not really but technically that's what it is. There is a video down below that shows different ways to do that.
Here I test different shapes with the Ligh tool.
The images are all taken with a Light Painting Tube. Here is a quick wrap of what to look for when pursuing this technique.
I hope it was also inspirational. If you have more questions please do not hesitate. I am happy to share my knowledge.
