Weekly Challenge #285 - Light Painting
Posted By: Rakmup, 05-23-2014, 12:10 PM

Hello fellow Pentaxians....

What I love most about photography is seeing things in a new way that my eyes don't usually see them.
Light painting definitely fits the bill and can show motion or stills with specific shadowing and highlighting depending on your take.
I've seen many many steel wool sparks flying and globes of spinning light and this should not be about that. I will be looking for out of the box thinking and creativity. Try something new to you and maybe become the next big thing everyone else copies!
...oh yeah...Have fun!


This challenge will run until Friday May 30th at 8PM Pacific Time (UTC/GMT -7 hours). Can't wait to see your light paintings!

Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week.

Everyone is eligible to send in their best interpretation of the given theme, as long as the photo is taken with a Pentax/Samsung camera. Themes can be subject-oriented or technique-oriented.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax (or Samsung DSLR) camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

Here's mine...just running a flashlight around the balls while in bulb mode.
