Light as a Subject

[monkeypaw2u]

What it is: A Fiber Optic night light from the Dollar Store
What I used: Olympus E-510, 14-42mm @ 29mm, Hoya +1, +2, +4 Diopter Macro Filters
What Settings: ISO 100, F22 @ 2 Seconds for Exposure Time
Setup: Camera on one tripod, nightlight on another tripod (secured with my wife's hair tie)

I shot this subject from many different camera angles and many different positions for the light. I chose the this composition as my favorite because of the sense of movement and life (from a bigbang perspective) that was portrayed. The image was processes in lightroom to enhance the black levels, some sharpness and contrast, which my camera lacks natively.

I think you did a great job of showing us your intent on the idea.
It is exactly what I thought about before reading your description.
Great job and thanks for posting.

I really love how it turned out, the colour is beautiful!

It's amazing how sometimes the simplest set-ups result in the most spectacular images. Well done, sir. This is a great shot. I think the Big Bang imagery is spot on.

I like the red shot a lot. Very cool. You can use all kinds of light and then add a lil long exposure and BAM...
