Paint with Light Macro Experiment
Thought I would try something a little different this eve, looking at all the flowers I have in my yard, I thought I would try shooting them after dark to see what kind of effect I could get. I mounted a black piece of poster board behind, mainly to block the street light and give a uniform background, then I just set it to Bulb and broke out the flashlight. Took about 30 or so pics took me a couple to experiment with the light and exposure (yay digital). Hope you like the result, I know I was kind of jazzed with some of them. Thanks for looking.................J

That looks great, Joe. It takes my mind a minute or two to reconcile the daylight feel of the flowers with the black background; interesting technique and cool results!
