Taking inspiration from my photographs of light trains last night I experimented with drawing shapes, words and letters using a lighter and a 30 second exposure time on a sony digital slr.
My first experiment was unsuccessful due the fact that I could not light my lighter correctly and it kept blowing out.
My second attempt was much more successful and actually created a shape, which was a heart. I will experiment tomorrow with a better variety of shapes.
I then attempted to combine text and shapes, I think this would have worked if I had realized it would come out backwards! - flip the image on photoshop?
I think the alphabet letters are extremely successful and tomorrow will create the entire alphabet. I will also do this outside as then i will have a darker background rather the the light wardrobe that is currently in the background which i find quite distracting.
