Light Painting

My daughter bought me a year's subscription to Digital Photo magazine for Christmas and the first article I came across was tips and tricks on Light Painting. I used my wife's cauldron which normally only comes out for Halloween (for sweets not boiling children). There are six, five-second exposure, images stitched together using Elements' (11) photo merge. I used a mini-maglight with the lens removed as the light source and the cellophane from a strawberry quality street for the colour. We'd eaten all of the purple ones.

I am brand new to light painting. In fact just took my first light painting pictures this week. I used a mini mag lite for both of these shots. I am going to do some actually painting instead of just grafitti this week. Take a look at my first two shots worth looking at. Both were taken with a Nikon D7000 with a 18-105 kit lens in a pitch black room.
