Le Nez en l'Air (Lightpainting on Hive)

Hi everyone,

I'm just back from the Nez en l'Air festival : what a blast!!!

The concept of this festival is simple : we're a bunch of local artists from Nantes who decided to settle into the vineyards during the 4 last days. We were 5 or 6 per domains, with 4 domains so it make a total of 22 artists. Were are painters, sculptors, photographers, drawers, upcycling artists...

I built a black box to do lightpainting during daylight. I made portraits of visitors and, of course, I invited people to try to do lightpainting.

As a warm-up, I made a couple of test shots with my man Gaël Wayne, a local dancer who joined me at the Landron domain.😎

As the weather was very sunny, we made a couple of infrared photography sessions. You'll see that here during the upcoming weeks for sure 😉

WHAT IS LIGHTPAINTING?
Lightpainting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
