The winner for the Light Painting Photography contest for November 2018 is… Kim Von Coels for the above ghostly image created in her mothers garden with a little help from her friend Sophie!
Kim said this about her winning image:
This photo was created in my mothers back garden, with my friend Sophie Alexi, after several glasses of Port.
To create this image we used an old mosquito net, one torch (LED lenser P7.2) and a blue gel/filter.
First I got Sophie to stand with the mosquito net over her and i lit her and the net with the blue gel over my torch. I then removed the gel and flashed the torch toward the camera several times in a circle around her to create the stars. I then removed the net and asked her to crouch in the same place as she was standing and lit her briefly again. There is a bit of ambient light in the garden from the house lights and the sky is picking up the street lights from a nearby village.
It is an 89 second exposure at F10 and 200 ISO shot using my Nikon D610.
