And again..




I tried my hand at light graffitti again, as you can see. I tried it outside this time, thinking it might have a different effect having different light to work with. I think it looks pretty effective with the bricks in the background, and the last image has the ghost of me, which is pretty cool. I dont think they turned out quite as good as I thought they would, just shows it's not quite as simple as it looks!
By practicing light graffitti I have learnt how to create interesting shapes by changing my shutter speed and making it really slow. I had done this before without realising what I was doing over a city scape and got some interesting results. But Now I know why I got those results and how to do them again.
I don't think practicing light graffitti has changed the direction of my work. It was fun to try and I enjoyed learning more about my camera but I don't think light graffitti will be included much in my work. I learnt how to create these photos through internet tutorials and occasionally asking Jenny for help. I found the tutorials worked well, I used youtube to find a video that was clear and told me what I needed to know.
