light painting

Sometimes you need to have some fun, enjoy the process and not  worry too much about the outcome. So when I saw that my Christmas tree lights had not yet been put away, I plugged them in, took out my camera, set it on a low shutter speed and did some finger painting!

The results are a little abstract and trivial, but I had loads of fun, and sometimes that is what it is all about.

Although thinking about it, the bright lights in front of a black background could be an omen on the future of the SOAP bill; I hope so.

Here are a few more of the pictures.

    Lights are difficult to photograph but they do create abstract images one can play about a bit with and have fun.

      Yeah I was having fun being abstract, I think the difficult part would be to create a specific design (such as a heart). Perhaps next time.
