This image is part of a larger series I'm currently working on. I have upwards of 20-30 images simlar to this.NOT PHOTOSHOPED, all done in camera. Basically Im light painting. Except instead of random patterns of light I am using a technique that I have and working on prefecting. Its similar to that of fire spining. As far as the technical aspects this is achieved by a long exposure. Some of my exposures are upwards of thirty minutes to an hour. I open the shutter begin my exposure walk into the frame create the orb or orbs then walk out out of the frame. I don't appear in the frame because of the super long exposure. Its takes time, and countless hours waiting for the image to be caputured

Hi Y'all
I am a professional portrait photographer and work for a large nation wide company. I also in the side am a chef. I take pride i the images that I produce. I currently own K 5 and really would like to move to a medium format camera. I am a student as well... an art major. Hopefully will be obtaining my B.A. in fine arts sometime soon. I practice in multiple mediums from sculpture to painting and drawing. I like most people on Pentax forums love photography and being its job i'd say i think i know what im doing. I grew up learning film and the processing of the old darkroom days and i do miss it but digital is ever so prevalent in our world today. Occasionally I will pull out my film camera and be a local tourist so to speak and walk the streets of my home town of Charleston. People always ask me questions like oh is that the new latest XXX camera by XXXX im like nope... its film. I recently aquired a working polariod land camera and cant wait to hit the streets of Charleston with a pack of instant film. Im sure there will be of people wondering what kinda of contraption im carrying. I got that alot when I photographed the with my large format kodak and my Voiglander. I love film I also love digital but there is just something about film that digital has yet to acquire or is lacking. thats alittle bit about me
thanks
