It has been a while I have “painted with a light”, so I decided to take this week “sport” theme as a challenge. Unfortunately, my own painting skills are very bad, so I have used my kids’ Strider bike as a template. In the middle of the night, when the rest of the family was sleeping already, I have created this lightning speed vehicle 😉 Shot below has been made straight in the camera with a pretty easy set up. Camera on the tripod and shutter speed on Bulb mode. It took me exactly 111 seconds to paint it with a small, one single LED diode lamp. I have aimed the light into the lens and was trying my best to copy the shape of the bike. And voilá 😉
Below is one more “rainbow” version (talking about Olympics, this is quite favorite color combination in Sochi right now 😉 Even though, there are no bike disciplines during the Winter Olympics… )
PS: And that night playing brought me one more fantastic idea and shot, which I will share later on. It is about sport again, and I can just say, that it was the night after the kids’ birthday party! 😉

Nižšie je ešte jedna “dúhová” verzia (a keďže sme už pri tej Olympiáde, tak som počul, že toto je tam teraz veľmi obľúbená farebná kombinácia 😉 hoci neviem si vybaviť žiadnu zimnú cyklistickú disciplínu…)
PS: A v tú istú noc sa mi pritrafil ešte jedne fantastický nápad a záber, o ktorý sa podelím neskôr. Je to znova o športe a jediné čo prezradím je to, že to bola noc po narodeninovej párty našich detvákov! 😉
