Yesterday I headed into Gloucester for some more light painting practice. I’ve only had a very quick go at this in the past, and have been meaning to try it some more. As usual, finding some good locations was the hardest part, but we initially started with the usual car park….good for some practice to [...]
The other evening I headed out for another test of the new rig. This time I was able to use the full length, I couldn’t last time as I couldn’t physically fit everything in my Lotus! So first up was a quick test shot on my Dad’s Audi. Everything seemed fine, and the rig [...]

Yesterday I headed out to a few locations that had good potential for rig shots, with my friend who’s always happy to lend his car for some experimenting. These are the results: We tried the same shot as above from a different angle, I’m not sure whether I prefer the original or [...]
