Could have been nice if the moon had been much bigger :)

Thank you :)

This is the type of light painting I like...

Very simple to do - camera on tripod, somewhat around my settings and then a flash light "drawing" slowly on the subject. Its pretty much straight out of camera, a little less red and a stroke with dodge tool.

The moon does not matter. The "painting"is quite evocative. You are pushing the boundaries in very imaginative ways. Keep the experiments coming.

Thanks...D50....Aperture F6.3....Shutter 30 sec exposure....Focal length 28mm..Time was 8.42 pm

The light use is called a Dolphin light...It casts a yellowish light....

A friend of mine does similar type things to this with film...He does the light painting then adds the moon after if he cant get it in the shot...

Excellent photo, to get the moon bigger you would have to put on a 400mm lens and walk around 2km's (or further) towards the moon lol :p
