This was a fun series to create with my Canon XTi. The subject is colored lights in a dark room. I did different movements in order to get the light streaks to go in a specific direction. I hope you all enjoy viewing these. The photography used different shutter speeds and movement. With some of them I applied filters to give them artistic effects.

THE HORSE SHOES – Lights and movement. Not digitally manipulated.

INFINITY – Photography of lights can be used for the foundation of illustrations created with programs such as Photoshop.









Amazing effects. What kind of lamps did you use? Simple bulbs, colored spotlights or so?
Thanks! This is a photograph of our Christmas tree. I turned all the lights out in our room and used a long exposure focusing on the lights. Then I did some post production work using Photoshop.
Thanks for the clarification. Amazing how a well known object like a Christmas tree can turn into an abstract source of colored lights.
