Light Painting

After weeks of trying to decide what I wanted to do for my Location Photography unit I decided to look up a practitioner called Michael Bosanko, he created these amazing light photograph's which were like graffiti but they looked amazing! I wanted to try this technique out so a couple of days ago I got my camera and set the lens manually to the right focus, set the timer to 10 seconds and bought a laser pointer on Amazon and started to light paint. Most of them look better than others but overall I am pleased with them. I really enjoyed doing this and I would do them again if I wanted to :)
 I really love this one because you can't see me! I'm blurred out in the background but the lines in the background are blurred but the closer ones stand out.
 
 After using the violet light I tried the red laser and I love it! It looks like I painted my room :D
 
 With this one I decided to go absolutely crazy with the light and it made this really interesting cross stich pattern!
 
This is a really bad attempt of me drawing an evil face... 
 
 
These two are kind of the same but different light.

Laser Pointer Finally Works!

Well finally my parents got my laser pointer to work and when they fixed it I had a shot of it. When I was messing around with it I wanted to try something with my camera on my phone and the laser, which I thought was a great idea so I decided to post the outcome of the photograph on here. All I did was point the laser to the front camera and see what happens (by this time it took me like 5 attempts to stop shaking) and when the photograph was shot it actually looked like a WiFi signal which my friend thought it was awesome and it looked amazing! After a while I wanted to try different shapes by using the different colours I had and some were good but the others were quite bad in my opinion.
 This one decided to make my fingerprints larger which I really liked.

 The outcome of this one was very poor in my opinion as I was shaking while holding the laser and my phone.

 This photo was trying to do the light painting and i wanted to see what it would achieve I can see I didn't move my phone along but also I didn't want anyone to see my hand! (Please excuse my fluffy slippers!)

 I really thought this photograph was very bright and it shows the rays of light from the flash on the camera which I also loved!

This is the picture I sent to someone on SnapChat and they loved it so I luckily saved it before I could send it to my friend for 10 seconds because she described it has a fingerprint scanner and my other friend said that it looked like a WiFi signal so I really don't know what it is.
