So I had this idea last week and banged away at it this weekend. Probably not the most original thing ever, but I thought it was fun. I like the clean, graphic representations I have here but I'm wondering how it works for you guys :).

I think they're really neat.... love the differences in the electricity path from bulb to bulb.

I think they're cool as well. I see you used a 4sec ss. How did you do these? I would have thought that with that type of ss, the bulbs would be nithing but a white blown out frame.

@kirks how do you see the ss? I see nothing with my exif viewer. To OP very nice these are great for framing.

Oh, they're actually composites. The lit filaments were taken with a 9-stop ND filter, hence the 4 sec; the glass was shot with the bulb off but the side light sources on (actually those vertical sources were the living room and the garage with lights on and doors ajar - ghetto studio lighting!). Then I merged the shots in post.

Thanks for the comments. Do you guys think I should keep the last shot in the series? It's the same idea but I can't help but think it's out of place... (also, whatever I do it never seems straight)

Very creative! The last one contributes to the diversity of bulb shapes, so should stay...

I think they are superb! The last shot only looks out of place to me because of the dead space above the bulb.

Well originally I had it fill the frame, but then the base became real large compared to the others and it sort of looked weird when you flipped through the images...
