This is absolutely stunning. I'm currently drooling my way through your gallery and the light painting stuff is awesome. I love the different colours of light in this. The visual effect of different colours of light in one photograph is one of my favourite photography-related things. This picture has put a huge smile on my face.

DaveMc In reply to EveryNextDream [2008-06-19 20:15:47 +0000 UTC]

Ah, yes, this was one of my madder ideas involving batteries and glue. Remind me to tell you about it when I see you.

DarkAlicorn [2007-10-05 04:32:52 +0000 UTC]

very cool.
I wonder could you light up an ice cicle with an LED. IF so that might look freaken sweet.

DaveMc In reply to DarkAlicorn [2007-10-07 17:37:22 +0000 UTC]

Yea, you probably could if you happened to have one handy. Trying to get one to form on a model might not make me very popular though

The mask comment is right on for me. The mixture of light sources really add a sense of mood and angst.

The pose and the expression are tack on for me as well. The look in her eyes and face really spark a wave of emotions.

great shot!!

It kinda looks like two pictures combined in one. my eyes jumo back and forth between the warm tones of the body and the cold face... interesting and confusing.

DaveMc In reply to geeny [2007-09-26 09:56:29 +0000 UTC]

It is all one shot though Just a few very small, strategically placed lights.

hi david
really nice idea with the two different light-angle. but, (maybe not like others..) i don't like the different light-color. i would try to use the same light-color of another angle.
--> just an idea to improve your idea & work.

DaveMc In reply to dkraner [2007-10-07 19:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the suggestion. I've been working with single colour lights for quite some time, and have been experimenting with more contrasting lights.

dkraner In reply to DaveMc [2007-10-07 19:50:48 +0000 UTC]

it's ok, your new image is better i think.

the contrast about the two different lights isn't that strong.
hope to enjoy much more images of you in the next time.
