Disintegration towards light sleep.

Description

This work was done alongside lots of others as part of a technique that I am developing.
I have several times been told that it is a technique already in existence, but since I have only ever been able to find one example of this not done by me, I still say that I'm developing it - or at least developing my own.

It's done on a Canon IXUS 70 with ISO 80, 15 seconds of exposure, a dark room and a flashlight.
With the flashlight I paint with light the items on the photo.
Adjustment of colours is permitted, manipulation (insertion or displacement of items) is not.

This is my first work on gfxartist.com and I appreciate all comments.

Welcome to Gfx!
You will see that some of us are a bit "harsh" on our comments, But I find that a good thing, I evolved with the harsh comments!

Really like this light plays with long shutters! But you are wrong, there's a lot of light compositions like this! I've done a few outside Gfx! And I've read about 50 different articles about them! First times I saw these things they were being posted here Maybe I am sick ... by Elite robertmekis back in 2004!!!!

Not at home right now, But I'll add some of my works!

Regarding yours...
I'm a huge fan of the light coming out of the nose, apart from that I like the ghostly like of it. Oh, and I would have done this outside, in a different BG.

Welcome to GFX

agree with vasco almost everyone have tried this technique

Regarding yours it's a nice effect but the BG is way too distracting to work

WOW, Vasco! Your links are just amazing... Did you have them all stored for this occasion? LOL

I don't mind the background a bit.

Great light play!

@Patrick
Some of them yes! not for this moment but think I remembered seeing! I was into this kind of shots... never made one that I enjoyed enough to post here! The other I just did a small search on light paint or flash light photography!

Thanks for the amazing links Vasco - they litterally opened up a world of light painting for me - because I didn't know what to call it before; that is, I didn't know what to search for (though I have to admit it's so simple that I don't know what to make of the fact that it didn't come to mind before (but you know what they say about simple things...)). He he.

The one photo I knew on beforehand was the 'Picasso' piece done by the photograpther Mili Gjon in 1949 (and not 1924 as the http://tropist.wordpress.com/2007/06/29/friday-fun-light-graffiti/ link suggests).

Thanks for the comments all

The comment 'the BG is too distracting' is a regular one (and I appreciate it) - but why is the BG too distracting? In works in general I love gritty backgrounds because they dismantle the illusion of the photo as a moment without a world - and reset the magic of art back into this world, while permitting real life magic. Or at least seemingly so.

I like the background. My problem with the image is the streaking light from your nose :)

Nice..

I LOVE THIS! Add this to my fav artwork. It has been a long time I never see an unboring photograph!

ps: the background was a nice element. I love your wall. I used to have wall with some annoying posters back when I was in college. But now my wall is a boring wall. Though I have a boyfriend who has walls like yours, but I miss my wall. Sorry this is a total rambling :p

looks really coool !! I have to say your photo is very interesting and have another dimension to it because you use this light effect in a clever way.

and part of the joy is to rediscover thing for yourself when painting/taking photos etc. keep up the good work and cool to see more people from denmark here.

great work... i liked the scary feeling... :p... glad to know that you invented it by yourself... does it really matter if some one has discovered it before you? as long you have the creativity to have such idea and to deploy it with success.... hoping to see a lot more nice work from you! welcome to gfxartist! :)

I absolutely love this! What an interesting photo..I really enjoy the composition, don't think the background is busy at all. I love how the person ended up looking ghostlike. What an inspiring piece.
