Saturday night while we were camping, I got my tripod out and took some more "light painting" pictures. I had the help of chris this time, and some pretty good backgrounds provided by the camp site.
It was much harder than I thought to draw a 'campfire' in the dark. I thought it would look neat to use green for the painting, but I think it just made the campfire look like a big onion.
It looked more realistic with red color.. (thanks Alden, for really getting into character for this shot)
I wanted to try a different type of tracing to make a figure. This time instead of coloring in the subject, I tried to create the subject with the use of negative space, so I colored around the subject instead of in front.
This one came out pretty cool. It looks like you can see Bronson's details, but really thats the tree and leaves in the background.
I tried to make a silhouette of Chris's head... i think next time we need to be closer to the tree, or no tree at all.
