Hello Hive-World,

wish you all a happy Friday 馃槑.
Here is another shot from my little home studio.

In my shot from a few days ago, one of my tools was a couple of colourful lighters. I used them again in this shot. However, this time they were mounted on a rotating device.

right picture: El-Wire moved during exposure


Tripod 1:
Started with the Lighter on an old bicycle rim and the Camera mounted un my Camera Rotation Tool (CRT). Created a 8 x 45掳 Rotation

Sigma 28 - 70 mm @35 mm | ISO 100 | f/5.6

Tripod 2:
In this set I stretched the El-Wire (two colours) sideways in front of the camera. The lens cap was removed and the El-Wire moved a little. After about 3 seconds, the lens was covered again and the camera was rotated 45掳 around the lens axis on my CRT. Then the lens cap was removed again and the El-Wire moved and so on until the camera was in the starting position again (8 x 45掳).

Sigma 28 - 70 mm @70 mm | f/8

Total exposure time: 336 sec.
Single exposure shot - Nothing is added or removed in post processing.


I hope you like the little "behind the scenes" description. I would appreciate an upvote or a comment if you like it.

Wish you a creative weekend 馃挭
