I hope you had a good start to the new year. For me, the turn of the year has been rather quiet for years now, without any fireworks of my own.
This time, we are travelling in rural Brazil. It is very quiet there.
If there are no fireworks, then steel wool will have to do. A week earlier, I went to the beach in Bertioga with my wife. It wasn't our first time there. I've also created a few light paintings there before.
This time, my theme was the turn of the year.
As always, the preparation took more time than the light painting itself. I show how the picture was created in this video.
Ich hoffe Du bist gut ins neue Jahr gekommen. Bei mir verläuft der Jahreswechsel seit Jahren ohne eigenes Feuerwerk eher ruhig ab.
Diesmal sind wir in Brasilien auf dem Land unterwegs. Dort ist es ganz ruhig.
Wenn schon kein Feuerwerk, dann darf es etwas Stahlwolle sein. Eine Woche zuvor bin ich mit meiner Frau an den Strand nach Bertioga gefahren. Wir waren nicht zum ersten Mal dort. Auch das ein oder andere Lightpainting kreierte ich dort schon.
Diesmal war der Jahreswechsel mein Thema. Die Vorbereitung nahm, wie immer, mehr Zeit in Anspruch, als das Lightpainting selbst. Die Entstehung des Bildes zeige ich in diesem Video.

The cover photo shows the first attempt. I made a second attempt because I wanted to scatter the sparks in a star shape on the beach. Which one do you prefer? Write your opinion in the comments.
Das Titelbild zeigt den ersten Versuch. Einen zweiten Versuch startete ich, weil ich den Funkenflug sternförmig auf dem Strand verteilen wollte. Welches findest du besser? Schreib es in die Kommentare.
