Hi guys,
I'm not getting much shooting done at the moment but have managed to get in a bit of location scouting and reading of magazines and websites. I'm up for trying a few new games. First thing to mention - I don't like PP games because I'm no good at them and they are always described in Photoshop. I use Aperture (badly).
One that drew my attention was creating light trails of flying sparks by setting fire to steel wool and spinning it in a whisk on a wire. Sounds great. I can see the shot I want already. I've also spied a street lighting feature under a motorway that I hope will provide me with great band portraits.
I'm going to borrow a charming assistant to help me practice before I bring in an actual subject. But I was thinking - do you have any odd techniques or favourite games? Fill flash stuff at night on 30s exposures? Glowsticks or sparklers?
Do share.
