David Johnson, Light Painting - 15th September 2016

This week we introduced our own David Johnson with a slide show of images of his "Painting with Light".

David took us through a series of images from Orbs and Fire balls to Light trails on the roads of Newcastle.
As he showed each image he described the technique used and answered questions from members.

At the end of the show he then set up his equipment and showed us how each piece of apparatus worked, from LEDs stitched to umbrellas and "light sabres" to a bicycle wheel with lights attached. The one thing David could not show was the spectacular effects of "Flaming Wire Wool"

At this point members were invited to get their cameras out and David gave a workshop on tacking photos using his equipment. A number of members tried and were quite successful at their first attempt.

This was David's first time at giving a presentation and members showed their appreciation accordingly.
Many thanks also for his offer to take members out one night for a "Live" demonstration.
A great night entertainment.
 
Some of the shots from our members are below.
