Painting with Light

In my last lesson we learned about how to 'paint with light', which I found incredibly interesting.
These two images are off lostamerica.com and are examples where this has been used to create a very extreme and surreal result:

Linda Girvin also creates a lovely effect in this image:You can also 'graffiti' with light, as in this photo:

I'd like to experiment with these types of lighting because there's so many different directions you could go with them.

Happy 2010!

I've had very limited use of the internet over the holidays, which is why there have been no recent blogs. but i'm back! just a quick one to start off...my friend Philippa sent all her friends this lovely happy new year collage she'd made:

It made me smile :-)

My new years resolutions....

• Stop spending money on stupid things so I can save enough to go travelling in the summer

• Try and carry my camera around with me more

• Try and do more excercise

Let's see how long these last!
