It's sometimes called painting with light or light graffiti.

I started with a subject, in this case, the flowers. Set my camera on a tripod and changed the exposure time to something like 15 seconds. This means my camera took the photo over 15 seconds capturing all the light sources. Simply ran behind the flowers, had one torch constantly on the flower pot and another I circled round to make the swirl.

There are loads of other great examples that puts mine right to shame. I can't remember a link that was here not long ago that had a great site with loads of these types of shots that really got me started, check out the forum and see if you can find it :/

Not good by any stretch of the imagination, but thought it was fun.

Was at Stars & Stripes Car show, inside my mates Gazebo(he is a trader). He had forgotten the pan to cook his beans. The colours are as the photo was taken because the gazebo is red and everything in it looks red.

i have some others from the show of cars etc, and will try to remember to post them later.

I'm far from good at this, but I've slowly been working on trying to become a better photographer... let me know what you think of this one.

I like t but it's a bit too white on the left. Did you shoot in JPEG or RAW? I have found Photoshop's RAW converter invaluable when treating my mages. However I suspect there are similar tools you can use for JPEGs. You should try getting a bit of detail so it looks all dark but then simply increase the brightness a little, add a bit of contrast and see what it turns out like.

what lens stevo? those a nice :) love bees.

Those were with my Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS if I remember correctly. I took some with my 50mm f/1.8 earlier in the day but I don't think I posted any from that. I'd have to check the exif when I get home.

It's JPEG, which is the only format my camera (a FujiFilm S700) will shoot with. I just started to figure out the advanced settings on the camera so I'm hoping to get better shots.

I have a friend who wants to be a model, I said I would take her pic for the cost of me doing it as its just for the experience.

Here are a few. I used film, so I hope these are allowed :o

I didn't know anyone still used film! ;)
