My assignment for this past week's photography class was light painting. Sort of like the little pumpkin shot in my Halloween post. The idea is to take a picture with a long exposure and "paint" the shot with light - illuminating what you want and sort of drawing, too, with smaller lights. This leaves a very wide range of creative options, to be sure, and my brain was on overload trying to decide what to do! I borrowed Mindy's super-awesome camera and called up my brother Jon and his wife Sarah to help me out. We trekked around for hours having fun and collaborating. Here's what I came up with.
Some of these are edited a bit to take out, er, mistakes. Some of them are edited better than the others. I don't know that I feel 100% confident about these, so please...I could use some feedback. I'd like to feel finished with this assignment and move on to my next one - portraiture.
What do you think? Which one is your favorite? Which one is just not workin' for you and why?

I really like the third and fourth wedding dress ones and the last one makes me laugh.
How nice for you that you have such photogenic sisters-in-law.
The last one made me laugh out loud. Love it. Sarah was a great model. I like the heart ones.
My faves are the first and fourth ones.
i vote for either of the swingset shots...although i think the one with the question mark is framed the best. :)
I like the stick men. They make me laugh.
My favorite is Sarahlove5 Where she has a heart over her chest. The only thing I don't like about it is that I can see the light pen or something in her hand. I imagine that can be edited out though. I like that she's quiet and calm and there is a sense of thoughtfulness and contentment in her pose.
I like the first one of the fire place and the swing shot too...thanks for calling me on friday - it's just nice to knows how you care I love you...
