Looking exposure was used for this effect. We placed steel wool in a whisk and tired the whisk to rope, then lit the steel wool on fire and spun the whisk around.Equipment
Nikon D3000 and a tripodInspiration
My friend actually was inspired to try this and asked me if I wanted to be involved. It sounded fun so we went for it.Editing
None.In my camera bag
I always have my Nikon d7100 and d3000, my tripod, a reflector, a Nikon speedlight and a Gary Fong light sphere.Feedback
Consider for safety when doing photos like this. We went to a wet marsh to make sure we wouldn't start a fire. We also had buckets of what on hand just in case.
