Lori

I love this! Is this a drawing then you colored it?

Pretty cool!

Created by a Master ,it is magnificent !

OOh this one, yeah I don't like it!!JK, it gives it such charm!!

Fantastic ! Love the colour play in the sky here!

slowly, or really slow? or normal pace?

painting motion, not too slow, not too fast..... you just have to get a feel for it as you do it.

wicked awesome colors, how do you do this lighting with colors?

red lights? how? very cool photo, I wanna do nightime photography now!!

________________________________________

you won't even go up close to an old building.. how you gonna do nighttime photography??? LOL

ok lighting here? and how do you make the colors?

holding a colored gel over the flash or flashlight and being at 90 degrees to the plane I am trying to light.

where is the lighting coming from?

_____________________________________

from the quarry at the base of this peak.

what settings? no exif details on this one!!

_________________________________________

Because it is a composite from three photos.

did you use a flashlight on this too? how big is your flashlight anyhow?

____________________________________

Yes, I painted this with colored flashlights. I carry about 6 flashlights with me when I do night shots, from varying size and luminosity

ooh a night named after me, how nice!! Very fitting for me, beautiful!!:)

ooh a canyon named after me, I MUST be famous!!LOL

ok I need more in depth description on how you pain the ground with a light, is the flashlight steadily moving? And why are tourists sawing them apart, to take a piece of the history home?

___________________________________________

Yes, the flashlight is moving.. actually I am. I am walking throughout the scene painting the ground and the bottoms of the cars, being careful not to let the flashlight shine at the camera or allow its side profile to be seen by the camera. Dee was probably walking around in the picture, too.

Yes, they are cutting pieces off the cars and taking them home.... bast*rds

I guess I sould've went to visit my sister in amarillo, cuz I have been dying to see these cars, too cool!! Was it really that starry or is it PS?

_______________________________________

It was that starry, they are real. no PS. I used a flashlight to paint the lights on the ground and undercarriages of the cars during the exposure.

the cars are being sawed apart by idiot tourists.... better hurry.

on a bulb setting right?


_____________________________________

Yup, anything over 30 seconds (this one is 58 seconds) has to be done in bulb

Wow!!!! Amazing!!

What small texas town???
