I was in the marching band in high school and since our school colors were Green and White, we referred to ourselves as the Mean Green Marching Machine! Something that popped into my head when I saw this shot! Another one of those facts of little interest! ;-)
Anyway... back on track here. This is another test of the Programmable RGB LED Orb Tool. I could throw tests around forever since this tool as the ability to pretty much come up with any orb that you can imagine. So... I just released a quick and dirty tutorial on how to make one of your very own! Can't wait to see what others come up with using this one! :-)
Light Painting - Single Exposure
This is the first attempt to create a light orb. It sure is hard to create a perfect round orb!
Dont mind the background and stuff, i just wanted to check if i could create a round orb :)
As this platoon of orbs made their way down the street, I could hear the faint echo of the leader in perfect rhythm... Hup!, Two, Three, Four, Hup!, two, three, four...
I was doing some Orb tool testing the other night to see just how hard I could swing the LEDs around and see if they would reach a point where they would detach and go flying away on their own! I am pleased so say that they stood up to the test! My test anyway. Of course, my son Cameron kept saying that he could break them! And I have no doubt since I have seen him break a few other things that would otherwize stand up to anyone else! Ha! And it is probably a good thing the LEDs did NOT come flying off since it could have dented one of those cars if it had actually happened! 8-O
On another note... I just made some exciting announcements on the LightPaintingTools.com website! Please check them out if you are interested in reading more! Lots of cool things going on! You can subscribe to announcements made on the front page of the website if you want as well!
Light Painting - Single Exposure
This is week 15 submission for the project 52. It was an extremely windy evening last night as you can see in the motion blur of the branches and clouds. This was my first attempt at a light orb, it's ok but i now can learn from this and think of ways to improve next time.
Waaay too much WD40 in the mix makes for big flames & a very over exposed fire orb!!! LOL
Still, it's always good to end a visit with a big burst of light.
Cheers to Chillie 63 for the green gel lighting around the concrete base :-)
A big thanks to all of the Amble tog's who came down from up North to visit the area, a cracking bunch of peeps indeed, a real pleasure meeting up with you all :-))
For the past 2 nights we have taken our light orbs out in the county. It looks like it was daytime, but it was 9:30pm.
A shot of the entire assembly with power applied.

For some reason the wire wool impacting on the floor was significantly more pronounced in this shot - looked amazing even in realtime!
Bit of a fail, partly due to the wind, partly due to inherent shonkiness ;) But the cwb turned out nice enough.
This should have been visible for miles. It was a bit on the windy side, so there was a fair bit of hopping about avoiding minor scorching.

Watch out for the tide, exploring the caves at Seaham. Me and Fellwalker1 stuck our wellies on and ventured to the beach. A great time was had.

Another shot from
"That night at the Pit"
Quite alot going on in this shot,
we have Pink EL Wire being waved around, multicoloured light wand for ribbon and orb and then the whole frame was highlighted with a head torch. Thanks for looking :)
Heavens opened just after setting up the tripod. But it made for interesting blurry orbules on the lens.

That's what I got when I made this shot!
Anyway I enjoyed this light painting session as the "live time" mode of my new OM-D E-M5 is the best invention since choclate! ;-) And you don't even need a remote! What you see here is the jpg that came Directly Out Of the Camera (DOOC).
But - for long exposures like that, there's a lot of all kind of noise in the raw files. So for the FHDR version I tried to reduce noise a little before further processing. Decide yourself about the result.
Now I have to think about all these really, really small buttons and reflect if I will keep this nice littel Olympus...
One of a series of 'Just mucking about' kind of images from a bored evening on holiday in Somerset a fortnight ago.
Wing Gundam HG 1/100
We hit up some Garage sales yesterday and I found a Gundam Model!!! I havent built one of these since I was in high school so It was Exciting. Not sure how many people still watch Gundam but check out Gundam 00 thats one awesome Series and thanks for listening to my Nerd Rant.
Kerstin and I made this picture about one month ago at the wedding (in German 'Hochzeit') of two of our friends. Think they didn't realize which univited spherical guests were playing outside. Lena & Wolfgang, I hope you like it! It was a wonderful day and a great party!
There has been some minor FHDR processing to the original picture that came out of the camera. Additionally this picture has been mirrored vertically, nothing else has been changed or added.
