normal picture through like put a flash

normal picture through like put a flash and economic base this is how it looks

and economic base this is how it looks

and economic base this is how it looks so if you imply a normal light painting

so if you imply a normal light painting

so if you imply a normal light painting technique this is how it turns out and

technique this is how it turns out and

technique this is how it turns out and this is another one so to light painting

this is another one so to light painting

this is another one so to light painting as lot of visualization goes on so you

so being become graduate myself I didn’t

so being become graduate myself I didn’t have much knowledge about electronics

have much knowledge about electronics

have much knowledge about electronics but in order to for me to create in

but in order to for me to create in

but in order to for me to create in order to meet for grow and create more

order to meet for grow and create more

order to meet for grow and create more light paintings I have to learn more

light paintings I have to learn more

light paintings I have to learn more about electronics so the ripening is not

about electronics so the ripening is not

about electronics so the ripening is not all not only about learning about

all not only about learning about

all not only about learning about photography but it’s all about learning

photography but it’s all about learning

Guinness world record we did along with

Guinness world record we did along with the friends uncor Sun sheet show bit and

the friends uncor Sun sheet show bit and

the friends uncor Sun sheet show bit and so we broke this record by creating the

so we broke this record by creating the

so we broke this record by creating the old the first record was done by people

old the first record was done by people

old the first record was done by people from USA and it was around like all the

from USA and it was around like all the

from USA and it was around like all the small dog I think you can I see only all

small dog I think you can I see only all

small dog I think you can I see only all the small dots right I’ll show the next

the small dots right I’ll show the next

the small dots right I’ll show the next picture so this is exactly like a ball

picture so this is exactly like a ball

picture so this is exactly like a ball shape we call it as AAB in light

shape we call it as AAB in light

shape we call it as AAB in light painting term and in u.s. they made

painting term and in u.s. they made

painting term and in u.s. they made around 200 ops in a single picture and

around 200 ops in a single picture and

around 200 ops in a single picture and made the record for Guinness record and

made the record for Guinness record and

made the record for Guinness record and we may be made around 900 ops

we may be made around 900 ops

we may be made around 900 ops in a single picture too broke to break

in a single picture too broke to break

in a single picture too broke to break the record

actually we planned 4,500 after doing

actually we planned 4,500 after doing this 900 weed we went for further 4500

this 900 weed we went for further 4500

this 900 weed we went for further 4500 but since even Freud took it took around

but since even Freud took it took around

but since even Freud took it took around 30 minutes first for the single picture

30 minutes first for the single picture

30 minutes first for the single picture so we did a lot of test shots and and it

so we did a lot of test shots and and it

so we did a lot of test shots and and it was like pretty cold that night and the

was like pretty cold that night and the

was like pretty cold that night and the batteries are almost died out and like

batteries are almost died out and like

batteries are almost died out and like almost all our cameras switched off in

almost all our cameras switched off in

almost all our cameras switched off in the middle of 2400 a turn so we couldn’t

the middle of 2400 a turn so we couldn’t

the middle of 2400 a turn so we couldn’t provide much evidence for the thousand

provide much evidence for the thousand

provide much evidence for the thousand pointed so we went for the 900 and it

pointed so we went for the 900 and it

pointed so we went for the 900 and it looks a great experience like after

looks a great experience like after

looks a great experience like after getting my actually we waited for six

getting my actually we waited for six

getting my actually we waited for six months to get the result our one for the

months to get the result our one for the

months to get the result our one for the organist record they asked us for two

organist record they asked us for two

organist record they asked us for two hundred pounds in order to make now to

hundred pounds in order to make now to

hundred pounds in order to make now to get the wrestle like one they said they

get the wrestle like one they said they

get the wrestle like one they said they will give me in one week if you if you

will give me in one week if you if you

will give me in one week if you if you gave them two hundred pounds but

gave them two hundred pounds but

gave them two hundred pounds but actually we waited all wrong and the

actually we waited all wrong and the

actually we waited all wrong and the wait was worth it and this this is one

wait was worth it and this this is one

wait was worth it and this this is one of the tools we use to do the auto ops

so this has been my journey being a

so this has been my journey being a light painting artist and I like to

light painting artist and I like to
