Painting With Light

I enjoyed this week's Random Challenge theme, partly because I finally figured out how to do something new with my camera.

This was my first submission, it seemed to fit the description of how to Paint with Light given by Chris last week. The kids informed me that I was nuts going out to play in my flower beds with a flash light & camera at night. Thankfully, the neighbors seemed to be a little more understanding. Or maybe they are just used to me doing random odd things around here.

This is my favorite photo from the shoot. You may recall that one of the themes a few weeks back was Long Exposure. After many failed attempts since then, I finally figured out how to lengthen the exposure on my cheap digital camera.

I have several more photos that resulted from this discovery. They may end up on a post later this week if I get a chance before my upcoming mini-stress relieving-vacation. On that note, I have a few updates that need to be made to my 101 list. Hopefully I will get to that later tonight!

I do have a poem posted at Impassioned Versifier this week. Be sure to check out this week's other amazing takes on Painting with Light over at Photography139.
