Let there be light!

Let there be light!, a photo by [Nocturne] on Flickr.

I bet that most of the UFO/alien sightings can be put down to light painting. In this instance you would see some sucker on the news saying "I was driving down the road then this giant green portal to another dimention opened up swirling around, as I got closer It just dissapeared" Yeah this was two guys lighting painting in the middle of the road, then ran out the way before you ran them over. haha

I'm not really in to orbs mainly because I really suck at them, I'd rather not do any than make bad ones. It would be like Pablo Picasso going from being a painter to being a professional christmas present wrapper. If you are good at something stick at it, all I can say. Orbs are either something you are good at or you suck at, and I suck at them! Luckily Fran is awesome at them, on this night Fran tried his first orbs and the first one came out near perfect, and this one must have been like his tenth one and is still pretty damn good. In good spirit as usual when something happens a lot if I do it I will try to step up my game to be impressive and not just blend in to everything else.

I'll be a keeping a bit of the work I am doing recently a bit hush for about a month but it will come out and be worth the wait.

This picture came about by me and Fran being stood around talking, and I believe I said something along the lines of "Hey when we get back to the car you should stand do an orb in the middle of the road" he then replied with it being a good idea, so when we go back to the car, we set up our cameras at the side of the road and Fran makes an orb in the middle of the road, it looked nice but didn't quite have the edge we we're after. I then said "lets move our cameras in to the middle of the road looking right down it, and do the orb between the two signs" again Fran agreed this was a good idea, and we would help each other out incase a car would happen to come. So I think I went first and set up my camera and stood with it while Fran did his orb. Then Frans turn came, and we set his camera up, then again crazy ideas were flowing so I said I would lay face down in the middle of the road while Fran did an orb behind me, and thank god a car didn't come because we would both be a bit buggered.

This isn't the first time I have taken a highly calcuated risk for a photo, and will not be the last.
Either one of two things can happen when you take such a risk for a photo, it will either look rubbish and you will get a lot of stick, or it will look amazing and you will get a lot of credit and respect.
