This digital photograph was taken with the idea to create movement and colored light streaks using a technique I learned long ago in college with my good old film camera. It still works! But with the digital camera I could take loads of photos and just delete the ones that I knew wouldn’t work. The trick was to find just the right movement and colors that would create the greatest contrast in the dark. The final image was digitally edited by adding filters for the rotating look, but I didn’t need to adjust any coloring or brightness/contrast the vividness came out naturally. Copyright 2011.

Very cool! The lights in the dark make quite an impact, and the swirl edit makes it like-totally-cosmic-dude.
Thanks for visiting my blog last week!
Hey, glad you like it. I enjoy using the black to give the colors space.
Your study of lights are very eye catching. Can’t wait to see more!
Thanks, maybe you can get some quilt ideas from them. Happy New Year! Enjoy!
I don’t know if you noticed, but in some of my abstracts, I’ve been doing camera movement (http://katiescamerablog.wordpress.com/portfolio-2/photography-as-abstract/ ), so it’s interesting to see this from you. This is just so simple and so beautiful. I really like this. Well done.
Just took a look at your link. Thanks for sharing! I’m excited and honored when talented artists like my posts.
As for studying lights and shadows….it always fascinates me the designs that they naturally make. I’m enjoying sharing my photos…I guess the next step is setting up a Gallery….
