So after that was finished, "Precious" and I headed out to Lake Massapoag for some fun light painting. Armed with a D200, Tri-pod, and a 2-million candlepower flashlight... we set up to paint some night pics.
I was so excited to experiment!
Ok, you must pardon the cheese of this first photo.... I just couldn't resist!
The first few were totally trial and error, but once we neared frost bite stage, we finally started to get some pretty awesome images!! :)
You should have seen us, we both have the attention span of a ferret on crystal meth [bonus points if you can tell me what movie that is from!!], so after each exposure, we were crouched down staring at a blank screen waiting upwards of two minutes for the photo to show. It was an excruciating few minutes of shivering and anticipation. LOL
The last shot of the night ended up being our money shot! 2min. exposure at ISO 200 F/5.6 with a 10.5 fisheye.
What is it about us photographers that can't imagine life without a camera permanently attached to our hands?

Ferrets on crystal meth? Wow. Good work. No idea on the movie reference though. And precious? I think I hate you. :-)
oh "Precious Doug", LOL. Hope no Baseball players/coaches read this one. Doug the Precious umpire, ha.
Shyla, now that is light painting ;)
Haha... "Doug the Precious Umpire!"
classic.
When we go to a game, James, let's take signs!! (oh and a bah of soap because heavens knows our little precious will be yelling explicitives at us!)
Look. If I hear a word of "precious" I'm coming into the stands to beat you both!
the quote is from Domino - but I must confess i googled it :)
