Light Breakfast. 106-365.
I had the honor to be asked to write an article about my light painting journey so far in the second edition of Lightart Digital Magazine recently. The magazine can be downloaded here www.lightartdm.com and is full of lots of awesome articles from around the globe.
For taking part I was sent this funky T-Shirt so decided to use it as a basis for tonight's shot.
I had recently seen someone burn steel wool contained in a glass which looked very cool. Then the idea struck as I had bought a massive pack of steel wool today that it would look cool to be eating a bowl of it.
Worked out the lighting first.
1 x Yongnuo 560iv through socked and gridded softbox camera left on 1/8th power @24mm.
1 x Yongnuo 560iv gelled orange camera right behind me shining down the wall gelled orange. 1/16th @50mm.
Lit the steel wool on the spoon which dripped onto the bowlful below, fired the shutter which in turn fired the flashes. Let the wool trails burn in for a few seconds and ended the exposure.
Very minor crop and contrast in Lightroom.
