Light the Night fireworks, Willamette River, Portland, OR See first comment for starting image, and tags for processing hints. O10779-84e2 - Happy Sliders Sunday!
16/01/2016; Kudos to all the people that participated in this running event by doing 10 kilometers (or a little over 6 miles) in the freezing cold, with a sleety shower at the start, while being dressed in all kinds of light.
After two years of online only events Light the Night PDX 2022 had an in person event this year. Although less attendance than pre-pandemic events, and with a laser show instead of fireworks, it was still interesting to photograph. This image is a blend (with some masking) of 5 Live Composite exposures (comprising a total of 488 1sec exposures) showing the end of the return of the walkers and beginning of the laser show; seven minutes later the scene was all but empty. The Lot at Zidell Yards, Portland, Oregon OM5968-73 - Happy Sliders Sunday!

Every year, the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation sponsors the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend, the official national tribute to those firefighters who died in the line of duty during the previous year. In 2017, the Foundation created Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters to recognize the 25th anniversary of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation and the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend. Since then, Light the Night for Fallen Firefighters has expanded to include fire departments and families lighting their homes in red.
As dusk turns to dark, landmarks, homes, fire service organizations, and businesses across the country will again glow in respect from May 4-7, 2023, to the fallen and their families.
The City of Los Angeles landmarks of Los Angeles International Airport and City Hall shone in red in honor of Fallen Firefighters everywhere.

The light painting community took a big hit this year in March when we lost Gareth one of our light brothers at the young age of 35.
Me and Gareth used to chat years ago through Flickr as he was interested in light painting, and I shared what I knew with him and he quickly turned in to a great light painter.
We didn't live too far from one another and always wanted to meet up to collaborate, we never got the chance so I've done my best now he's not here.
Gareth used to create these pefect orbs using a Led Lenser V24, I always imagined a collaboration with some of my stuff with one of these in the middle.
I got one of Gareth's images from Flickr (www.flickr.com/photos/garethbrooks/9516391524/) and loaded it in to my Pixelstick, and literally painted it in to my image so form the collaboration that couldn't be.
The significance of this is I asked Gareth to help me build a programmable light wand, he told me he had made a start on it so I wanted to honour it.
After Gareths passing in March the light painting community really pulled together and everyone posted some really thoughtful tribute images. I was in hospital myself at this time quite ill and was unable to join in showing my support, soon after leaving hospital my Mum passed away and only recently i've been back shooting and one of my top priorities was getting this image as I never got the chance earlier in the year.
I hope i've done it justice.
So if anyone would like to go see Gareths work and help keep it alive here are the links

Light The Night
R.I.P Brother
Despite the rain, Light the Night had a great turnout in Portland, OR 24 1sec LiveComposite exposures composited in camera using the Olympus Live Composite shutter mode. O2696
This moment happened at the end of a walk put on by the leukemia and lymphoma society. We walked with colored lanterns. Red represents supporters, white is for survivors and yellow is carried by friends and family of those who have passed. It was a beautiful moment to see thousands of people coming together to raise money to help find a cure.

This is another view of the River Torrens on the night of the "Light the night festival"...
***Don't you just love the fountain?
Look at it closely! The orange part is the water!
Sorry I haven't been around the last few days but due to unforseen circumstances, I couldn't visit you!
I'll be back in a bit to see what you've all been up to!
Have a magical day/night, all!
With love always
Nat :)

Last night was 'light the night' fundraiser held at Elder Park, along the River Torrens...the turnout was fantastic...it was free to get in but these lanterns you see here, cost $20AU!
Leo Sayer (who has chosen to live in beautiful AU) put on a great show and got the crowd involved...the weather was perfect...and at the end of the night the crowd went on a procession along the river, over the bridge and then along the other side...with our lanterns on...
The white lanterns represented, having lost someone in the family...the yellow ones represented, having survived the disease and the blue ones, represented hope and support...I'm happy and thankful to say, I needed to buy the blue one...
Blessings everyone!
With love
Nat :)
PS I will catch you all in a little while! :)

And talk about tricky lighting...
From the Light the Night walk by the Leukaemia Foundation.
Shine a gold ‘Love Light’ to remember a loved one.
Shine a white ‘Life Light’ to reflect on your life with blood cancer.
Shine a blue ‘Hope Light’ to give hope and support to others.
Notes: No 5D2 to save me from the darkness this time :D Had to make do with the 24 1.4L II and Provia 400X pushed 1 stop. In this shot I like how people are walking in different directions on the frame but they're the same line, just like in the Snake games. See this big.
More from me from previous years...

Light the Night is a fundraiser walk for Leukemia/Lymphoma research. I have two siblings fighting Lymphoma so my family really rallies for this fundraiser. It was a beautiful night.
She may be nearly 16 but we agree, she is so squeezable, loveable and huggable....she'll always be my baby!!!
Note: Katia, my daughter, born in 2000 is a cancer SURVIVOR & my hero. Diagnosed in 2002 w/ leukemia AML, her prognosis was poor. Relapsed in 2003, had bone marrow transplant (not a perfect match) in 2004 which her body soon rejected and still does. She's 15.
This image represents a lot to me. It’s the first time that I’ve volunteered my photographic skills to an organization (The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society), for their annual “Light The Night” fundraiser and really put myself outside of my comfort zone as an image maker. It is a good reminder of the people in my life that are currently battling cancer, those that have conquered it, and those that could hang on no longer. It is also a great reminder to be grateful for the circumstances and people that we have in our lives, and even when we’re having a rough / bad / tired day, there are folks out there dealing with so much more – immeasurably more.
For those that aren’t familiar with the “Light The Night” event, it’s a fundraiser to, among other things, help folks work through the process of being diagnosed with, and treating Leukemia or Lymphoma, and as well as working to find a cure for it. In this event, folks walk with the lighted paper balloons you see above – the red ones in support of someone that has it, the yellow ones in memory of someone that did, and the white ones are for survivors.
This image will forever be my reminder to be grateful for the healthy, incredible family that I am so very fortunate to have.

A break in the weather provided perfect weather for last nights Oregon Light the Night fireworks display. The rain stopped, the temperature was a pleasant 60º, and a nice breeze from the South blew all the smoke directly downstream out of the way from our East Bank Esplanade location, as well as adding a nice additional sense of motion to the fireworks. A break in the clouds even let some nice blue hour sky shine through. Not long after the fireworks ended and the Light the Night walkers left the East Bank Esplanade the rain returned.
