Lately I've been semi-obsessed with light writing/drawing using my dslr :) I was planning on doing this whole post with light writing but after about half an hour it.. just didn't work out.
For those of you who are interested it's pretty simple how this works. Usually in your ordinary digital cameras, they take a photo in about half a second. In dslrs however, you can make the camera take the photo over a long period of time. My camera only goes up to 30 seconds but there are some which can record for hours! So yeah.. then you just set your camera in a dark area and go crazy with a light :)
Here are some that I took a few days ago. The ones I took tonight weren't really any good |:
This is the original of my formspring background if some of you were wondering.
This is an example of why I didn't do today's post using only light writing LOL.

The second one says Adrii and the third one says k3. I just wrote normally and horizontally flipped the photos on ps after (: You can tell because the letters on my wall are backwards.
