    Fun With Lights!!!

    I was talking with Moose the other day about having fun with night
    photography using lights and figured I would share a few that I played
    with for the last week

    This I PLACED my mag light "VERY GENTLY AND RESPECTFULLY" in the
    puddled water in the inlet of this very cool A-6 in calverton, ran up when
    the shutter oppend and put the flash infront of the front gear light and
    fired the flash giving a neat effect......


    The in this shot, I stood behing the Phoenix Missle and lit the light and
    dragged it away from the nozzile many times and finally pointed the flash r
    right at the camera and fired away!!!


    Sometimes I like to draw the feeling I get in a certain place to let myself
    remember a feeling I got during a photoshoot....knowing all the history of
    this area and all the scary story's led me to this one feeling being
    wispered from behind me

    How did you do the DIE thing? With a flashlight?
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    somehow, i expected you to do something like this sooner or later...
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Yes... a led works great for freehand drawing. I will have to pick out some older shots of these...they can be very fun!

    Fred your shots amaze me, seriously they remind me of home when I am in Florida.

    Thanks for the kind words...

    Here is one of many little drawings I made with an LED...using a flash at
    the end is also very fun
