Sunday fun: light painting
Got a rainy Sunday morning? Let’s do some light painting:
Ingredients:
- a dark room (but not too dark, to avoid tripping over the camera)
- a small light (I’ve used my wife’s night reading light)
- a tripod
- a camera with “B” exposure, or at least 10 seconds exposure (Canon 1000D)
- a remote shutter with exposure lock (hand made)
- a three years old daughter (fun guaranteed :)))
Parameters: ISO 100, f3.5 - f10, manual focus set with light on in the room.
Additional fun: use colored films to change light color (saved for the next rainy Sunday morning).
