Those are some neat ideas! I am going to experiment a lot more with shots at night. The possibilities are endless. The long shutter speed was to give me time to fire her camera, run behind her with my camera, and fire my speedlight before the shutter closed. A friend gave me some radio slaves yesterday, so I will not have to do that again. I did a little light painting the same night, as you can see in the attached photo, but we were just messing around. Are you saying to follow the subject’s form with the light to create a “outline” edge with it? What exactly do you mean by “painting” in the long exposure? Thanks for advising! I also attempted to shoot some “see-through” shots by firing the flash, and then having the subject run out of the way. Kinda’ strange looking…
