Painting With Light








You don't have to use an SLR with a big lens to get creative with many of the revolutionary techniques that digital cameras make possible.

I took all of these images outdoors on a rainy, foggy night without flash, using a Kodak EasyShare V1253.

Sometimes the romance is in the strong contrast, the burst of light bouncing off of dark surfaces, the color richness that a landscape banal in daylight can take on at night.

I love being able to blur the image to create mystery.

Even more exciting is moving the camera while the shutter is open, painting with the light. The motion creates a cluster of figures, all dancing to the same rhythm.
