I sat in the passenger seat as the car sped down the road late one moonless night. My eyelids heavy and slowly coming together glanced over at the clock on the dash and saw it flicker over to midnight. As the world began to fade from existence I began to hear music, soft and unfamiliar at first. I began humming along trying to name that tune. The music grew louder and I became more frantic. What was this tune so familiar to me. I hummed louder. My body swayed left and right and my shoulders jived back and forth only held back by the restraint of the seatbelt. My hand pointed up then swung down on angle. The full force of the nightmare hit me. It was "Stayin Alive" by he Bee Gees and I was singing along with it loud and out of tune!

Cliche Saturday: Playing With Light
More street lights at night. Blaenavon again as well . Top of Vaughn Street if anyone recognises it. A bit more movement this time , and alot of playing with colour , mainly blue 😀. Very much an experiment with the abstract patterns of street lights.
Inspired by the Flickr group 'Camera Toss'. Instead of tossing my camera, I moved my camera in front of a light wand that was sitting in front of a mirror in a darkened room using a long exposure.
Camera setting: Bulb mode and held shutter open for various lengths of time.
Light source: Multi-colored light wand.
Playing around with WS2801 Led's a cheese grater and and toy Henry the hoover.
Place a cokin filter adaptor and holder over the 77mm or what ever lens size you have. Then carefully position the cheese grater over the filter holder. You will have to steel one from the kitchen and take off the plastic end! Your partner will go bananas when she goes to use it again, but thats the chances you have to take in life! Focus manually on the nearest point normally i do 1/3 into the scene. Set camera to 2 or 10 seconds delay, play around with exposure using live view, this one was 4 seconds with f7 ISO 200. Then simply wave lights around the grater until desired shot is taken. For best results use coloured rgb lights. Once shot is taken place the grater back into the kitchen draw and keep quite, deny all knowledge of the missing plastic end, if she notices it, blame the dog!
here she is, My Light Angel....calling out the lights....... 'May the Light Be with You', but Santa is on its way as well bringing family happinezz...... more available light Happinezz bubbles tomorrow.....watch my stream! Cheers Flickrito's...

Again playing with camera settings, the idea was to get some detail on the sandcastle which was heavily shadowed. I like the white effect though I realise it may not be to anyone else's taste.
crawled around in the garden playing with flares and light..
more to come? still contemplating which ones I like.

Man last night was fun!!!!!!!! We met up with Pixelated~Light and Lomo-Cam a little after Midnight at Moore's Crossing Bridge for some Light Painting. It was one humid night but the Moon was at her best and we got some pretty damn nice shots. One of the best things about meeting up with the ATX Light Junkies is we always learn a lot and its always a great adventure, Even Team Jacob showed up for a bit lmao :)
This bugger was hanging upside down under a leaf. I like how the light shines through the leaf and illuminates it. To be honest i have no idea of what "it" is exactly all i know it is a moth. I have only seen it as how the photo is taken, but i know it is more with/gray-ish instead of green. If someone knows what it is, please tell me. It is not a perfect sharp shot but i really like how it is lit and hope someone can tell me what it is.
