I think the ‘taste as smooth as silk’, tag line might not be appropriate here!

This little fella is a gouldian finch. He’s part of todays photo shoot for the next weekend passions editorial, about the ex drummer of a pop/country and western group, who took up bird breeding as a hobby. The full story should be ready for the end of the week.

The last of this series of photographs featuring lightpainting. I have plans for for adventurous shots. Watch this space.

The second photograph in the light painting experiment. For this one I used the same LED torch as before, but covered up the torch lens before ‘writing’ the next shape. Still an all in one shot though. The different colours are added in post processing.

The first image of three, with me playing  experimenting in a darkened garage again.  Leave the shutter open and basically paint with light. This photo was taken using a high beam LED torch attached to a piece of string, which was whirled around in a slow arc. It takes a bit of practice to work out where you’ve already been, hence why the light trails tend to overlap. The breaks in the streaks are where I’m standing and the torch is passing behind me. There are plenty of folks out there who are way, way, better at it than me, but not bad for a first attempt, and good fun.
