Arise.

Do you think we take advantage of light? It always surrounds us, but when we cannot see, we are afraid of running into something or not being able to protect ourselves because we are not prepared. Light can be used to create beautiful images and can also reveal subjects that when exposed are horrific. This weeks photo assignment was to "Paint with Light". Basically i had to use a movable light source to "paint" another dark object. I was in a completely dark room and the only light source i used was a match. In the next two photos i used a very long exposure and two matches and this is basically what it looked like. I'm not that proud of it, but it was good for me to experiment with this type of photography. In these photographs i chose to reveal what i wanted, and with light i created the image i wanted.
