Day 112



I thought it would be kinda cool to make it look like I was trying to catch some light. I bought these LED lights that I stuck together and then tied to the ceiling with some fishing line so that I can make it look like the light was floating in the air. I set up my tripod and camera, did all the necessary tweaks and then got back into place for the photo.

I set the camera to manual, with a 3 second exposure @ f8 so that when the flash went off the background would still stay dark. The flash was set to "Rear Curtain" which just means that it would go off at the end of the 3 second exposure. This allows the hanging LEDs time to spin wildly before the flash freezes everything in the image.
