I do love light painting. Wire wool makes brilliant effects.

Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo at my home in Sutton West Ontario Canada! I am a self taught photographer and I like to explore all types of photography.and I eventually started a business called Photos by EllE which can also be found on Facebook.Time
It was taken around 2am in the morning I used a tripod and remote and the camera was on Bulb mode. My neighbors must have thought we were nuts swinging Steele wool around in a wisk lol.Lighting
It was completely black out and the only light was the light coming from the Steele wool on fire! It was pretty wild!Equipment
Canon T3i and I used a Polaroid tripod and a Sigma 10-20mm wide angle lense.Inspiration
I've always loved the versatility of bulb mode! Wether it be for stars or light painting and one day a piece of Steele wool caught on fire and I whipped it across the room only to notice it made a trail of sparks and that's went the lightbulb in my head lit up and we set up for the shot that night!Editing
This was SOOC zero changes made to the image! That's what made me fall in love with it.In my camera bag
I'm basic to be honest I now shoot with a canon 70D body with kit lense I also have a nifty 50mm canon as well as two zoom lenses. I recently purchased a lightblaster which I am very excited to use!Feedback
Put your camera in bulb mode sit under the stars or grab some Steele wool and create away! For this image I set my camera to bulb mode for a 10-15 second exposure time. Pressed the remote button and sat back while my cousin swung a wisk stuffed full of flaming Steele wool above his head! If you do attempt this use extreme caution! Wear protective gear ect.
