A vintage automobile that looks like it needs an alignment during a beautiful Mojave Desert evening. I illuminated the scene with warm white light from a handheld ProtoMachines LED2 light during the long exposure. In this case, the mountains were dark, so I used the light to "rim" the interior and define it more as well as the exterior to "lift" it from the background more. Light painting to illuminate subjects is a beautiful, addictive art, as you can walk around the scene, deciding what to bring to light and what to keep in shadow. It's more fun than AI-generated art this way. This photo may appear in my fourth book of night photography, history, and stories. Photographed during a night photography workshop that we taught in the Nevada desert.
