Hi everyone,
Here are 3 pretty different images that I've taken recently while experimenting with light. I'd like some feedback - but didn't really think that the images were worth 1 thread per image .... so I put them together, since they are all "light related".

Trinity of Candles

Red Discs (Out-of-focus Fireworks)

Traffic lighting.

Cheers,
K!

WOW how did you get the effect with number 3? it looks really cool!

LOL, I like all three. First and second for simplicity. The third looks like you might have set up in the back window of a moving car. Time to get those shocks checked?!

Cheers

Matt

I have been doing a series of similar stuff under the heading of:

"Alien light forms"

NJ - pic 3 was taken looking through the front windscreen of the car. Glad you like it!

MattC - the shocks are fine - the road on the other hand. :lol:

(Having said that, I usually have my tires inflated a little more than normal - makes handling easier, but does increase the bumpiness!!)

Terrific stuff K.

I LOVE the candle shot - it's just a beautiful balance of light and colour. Well done.

The discs of light are interesting - are we allowed to guess what they are?

The car shot is probably how a drunk driver sees the road. SCARY!

Hey BlackWater - it's amazing how many cool effects you can make with just traffic/street lights. Here are a couple more pics from my outing:

White Light

Storey Bridge Lights

They are really impressive K! I like them both but particularly like the bridge shot.

Great work!

Thanks Blackwater - I'm not the only one who misses the titles!!!! :wink:

And I'd pobably got out and shoot some light shots too but it's p*ssing down here at the moment with a massive storm going over us. Not much in the way of nice lightning strikes though - just sheet lightning.
