  1. i think this is a great imgae and for me it is def light painting. i would be very pleased if this was my image, as i love light painting.

  2. i dont understand y people are saying that this is not light painting.. the creator has manipulated a source of light to create this beautiful picture… first glance at this picture… u actually feel that its a comet.. and then u realize that oh its done using steel wool.. i believe that if the image has not been rotated, it would have lost its charm.. a great work 🙂

    • This is most certainly light painting and while it is a good photo I personally feel there were many photos that were much better and also better fit the contest but because of how ridiculous the viewer voting was this photo had to win by default. It’s too bad for the people that had much better photos and should have won but didn’t even have a chance because they didn’t abuse the voting system.

      • Hi,
        Not a member, just a fan.
        Justin: OUCH! but better luck next time.
        Mark: Why is this not a light painting? I’d be interested to know? I presume it’s not ‘produced’ in photoshop and is a genuine DSLR photo of LED lights in motion…although I do think it may have had some strokes ‘touched up’ or removed, but I’m unsure…..
        expert opinion please?

        • Martin this is steel wool not leds. Also i doubt it has been photoshopped since the rules for the comp specified “no photoshop”.
