Light is Life, photographs and light painting
Series of photographs started in 2006, realized using the light painting technique.
The first time I shot a photograph, playing with the lights, I simply rotated my camera on a horizontal axis during the shooting.
The second time, I drew in front of the lens a smiley with a small flashlight.
Then , while I was walking around in the town by night, I took pictures of my light drawings integrating them in the environment.
On the 16th of May 2006, I started drawing light characters. The first photograph of the series is called "Rendez-Vous".
The following photographs are all from the Light is Life series. I wrote a tutorial about light painting available on my website.

Rendez-Vous. The first photograph of the series, shot in
Bougival (15km from Paris, France). I am visible on the left of the
picture, wearing light pants.

Sur un banc. Shot just after the previous one. I was still discovering the technique so I didn t realize I would be that much visible on the photograph !

Playground II. Same night, same place. I had a lot of fun
drawing the characters. I like the light in the top left corner. It
shines through the threes like the sun.

Abbey Road. Does it really need an explanation ?

Bus Stop. This one is interesting cause it is the first one
showing different types of characters and lights from a moving car. At
this time, I realized I could use light from vehicules to add movement
to my photographs.

Le train de 1h17. Shot after the previous one while a train was passing under the bridge. I only had one try.

Love. Two characters in love, on a bridge. Got the red light putting my thumb in front of the light. The reflection is natural.

Alberobello. Shot in southern Italy, Alberobello, it shows walking characters in front of a trullo (stone made house). I like the sky and the red lights from a car.

A man, a bike
The Light is Life series present more photographs, these are examples showing the aspect of it.
I have fun doing those and I am still working on it. For further information and pictures, you can check my website.
