Club Practical night

Tuesday 22nd February

Painting with Light

Tonight we had another of our practical nights, this time entitled “Painting with Light”. It gave us all a chance to explore our creative side taking pictures using long exposures in dark conditions.

Everybody arrived with different types of light sources including a mixture of torches and laser pointers and interesting objects to photograph. Bob and I had also brought along some equipment to create patterns using different methods to suspend light sources, mine very much in a Heath Robinson way.

After a period of setting up and a chance to get the customary drink all the lights were turned off and the chaos began.

Maybe the combination of darkness and many thousands of pounds worth of precious photographic equipment wasn’t the best combination however, everything seemed to proceed without too much of a hitch. As far as I know only one glass of beer was tipped over and no damage was done to anybody’s equipment.

All in all it was another enjoyable evening and hopefully many images were taken and they will be posted in the gallery.
