So I've been wanting to try some light painting for a while and finally got out last night and did some. It was a lot of fun seeing what I could come up with. Here are the 2 I liked the best. C&C always appreciated.

I cropped them into a pano type crop. I thought it worked better than a full 2x3 aspect landscape.

Looks good. I have had better luck if I want the lights to show up nice, to turn them off and paint them with the flash light, they reflect well and will look like they are on. Nice work above the car!

I love to light paint. I sent messages home from Afghanistan to my mom in the form of one. Great job! I am mustang owner as well, keep it up!
