Behind The Lens

Location

I'm a self taught photographer and like to experiment with new ideas. My smartphone has a light painting effect which creates some amazing textures.

Time

This was taken at night on a camping trip with my family. My children and I were toasting marshmallows and I had the idea to do some light painting. I took quite a few different shots.

Lighting

I wanted the viewer to be wowed by the depth of colour and textures in the photo.

Equipment

This was shot on a Huawei P20 Pro Smartphone under night time conditions with no flash. ISO:64 S:15s

Inspiration

Like many of my photos, I'm inspired by everyday events and situations. Light painting photography has always interested me, so I was very surprised at my results.

Editing

There was no post-processing needed.

In my camera bag

I'm a mobile phone photographer and haven't got a budget for a shiny Canon! To many of the professionals reading this, I'm sure this will make their toes curl in disgust, but it just goes to show how far we have come with photo technologies.

Feedback

Light painting involves trial and error and using the tools you have to hand. Whether you're using a phone like myself, or an expensive camera, you can create this wonderful art after trying it for yourself.
