Getting Started with Light Painting handout...

[Kathryn]

Ben Willmore, who is really great with Photoshop, has posted this nicely-written 'how-to' on getting started with light painting. All that's needed is a camera that has manual focus and 30sec exposure, a flashlight, and a dark space. It's free (with link to a more detailed book for sale.) Click here to go to digitalmastery.com

It's a cool idea for sure. Easy, even though I really don't even have that patience... :)

Good tips. And also know that light painting can be shared and posted free on photo hosting sites. And you will see lots of majestic night photos there.
