light painting sheep

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

In that I can attempt to follow the crowd.
I missed out on the Darling Habour meet but I did get a set of led's to take there.
So tonight I fired em up and had a bash.

Not the best effort I imagine but it was pretty easy to do inside.(I have very tall ceilings)
I think I need a longer exposure to get more of me turning on the spot to increase the globe shape as this looks a bit flat and 2d to me.

It does look a bit 2D, but lovely colours though. It's a good start to explore what else you can do with them.

Nice attempt Colin, I can see the faint outline of the room in this one. Not as 3d as it could be however.

kudos to ya for that!

I like your LED colours, I wish I had gotten me a blue cathode rather the the UV (no smartass comments now - of course its useless :roll: )

When i saw the topic I was expecting to see colin out chasing some sheep on ya block with a torch!

I reckon we need to tee another lightpainting meet up..

It would be great to get out and have a play with this stuff properly.
