My big glowing...ball by graemestevens

My big glowing...ball

More light painting, this time in our garden last night. This is just three "glow sticks" set to strobe with one of use whirling it manically about on the end of a chain. We have steel wool as well but we're sadly lacking in whisks to use at the moment, so there will be fire play at some point in the future - at the moment we're just practising and getting slowly addicted.
Fantastic.

Excellent. I have a problem with whisks for burning steel wool, it seems to escape the whisk. I've been using electric fence wire. I poke it through, and then bend the end over to keep the wool on it.

Wow, this is fantastic. I love it. and thanks for telling us how you did. Might give it a go, but hmmmm, there's just me so I'll have to rope in some friends. May have to bribe them with wine, though. Oh darn.
September 10th, 2014  
@jules13 Bribing with wine huh? When do want me there? It's great fun...I used the timer as well, so it can be done solo if the mood takes you!

I love the colors! Those are my kind of colors....wild and bright!
