Good Morning i hope your weekend is going well :)
Today I will share a few light painting images I have created.
Witht he days gettign shorter and sunrise gettign later, somewhere around 7AM at the moment, and with me still waking at 4Am or earlier, its been a good chance on days when it is not to chilly for me at that time to head out an hour or two before sunrise and get some more practive with doing lightpainting, and I am happy with the progress I am making
I wont try and pretend these are great as I have seen others do incredible light painting but its fun doing them and trying to improve
Starting with thot take at Fort Taber park one morning, trying to make better orb like shapes,

Now in case your wondering how I do these , they are long exposure sinthe dark, in the case of this series between 42 seconds up to almost two minutes.
I have an RGB Critter 2 flashlight, that you can select solid colors or patterns of colors, and then I have a selection of attachments that I can put on it, such as acrylic blades, in various shapes and light sabers, which are tubes with various patterns etched into them.
and you attached a blade or light tube and then move it abound during the long exposure trying to make cool patterns

this next one is probably my favorite of this series
The one issue I have had with my recent attempts of light painting, other than my lask or artistic skills LOL, is for some of the shots I would have liked to swtich that attachment onthe torch and add some other details, but when its pitch black at the time I am doing these, changing them in the dark is a challenge to do quickly.
So I splashed out and ordered another rgb critter torch, which will arrive today as I write this, so that will allow me to set up the two torches withthe diffrent attachments I need and hopefully help me to be more creative

Another spot I went to for light painting was the Neds Point Ligthouse and this next one is another one I am very happy with
