Feb Challenge Day 17 | time
Time. Time was a hard shot for me. I couldn't decide what I wanted a picture of. A picture of a clock or a watch seemed too obvious, too trite. I wanted something that required an element of time to capture it... something taken with a high shutter speed, or a long one.
I finally settled on painting a clock with light. This works by setting the camera to take a long exposure (in this one the shutter was open for 15 seconds), and then drawing the shape that you want with a light source. In this case, I stood across the room with a flash-light and drew a clock while the shutter was open.
I took several photos, and this is the one that I liked the most - the balance and feel of the lines are just right in this one.
