Lightpainting - Ice Hockey Kit

[Ginge52]

Hi,

Here is my first ever attempt at lightpainting various bits of my hockey kit, starting with sticks and gloves.

The rest of the set can be found on my Flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/ginge52/sets/72157629275470521/with/6858446093/

Any tips/advice would be muchly appreciated.

Bump - Any tips/advice for me?

You need to have a bit of patience before your bump this would have been in the unanswered posts so you would have got a response that way but by bumping it it could have meant that no one would have come across your thread :shrug:

Light painting is all about moving your light source to put the light across different areas of the the subject, in these there are area that are over exposed and then also those that are totally under exposed, this is a great style and with some more practice you will improve

Matt, Thanks for the response. I am a bit inpatient at times and when things are slow at work I just find myself refreshing the page .

This was my first attempt at anything like this, it probably didn't help that I was taking these jammed into a corner in my dining room so there wasn't a whole load of space. Will hopefully get a chance at the weekend to get some more practice.

Cheers.

OK, Here's my take Richard.
When I see shots like these I want to see the subject in a way I wouldn't normally see it, ie homing in on detail, colour, texture, interesting shadow effect, angle etc.
So with that in mind ...
First doesn't work for me.
2nd looks to have more potential, but lacks interest and has too much dead dark area.
3rs, as said above is blown, but does have more interesting lines.
Last works best for me, although you will probably be able to do better after a few more goes.
