    Looking back over the random thread, it appears that quite a lot of light painting was going on over the Charleville weekend so I think this is entirely appropriate and representative of what was great over the week.

    Way to go oshead - well done.

    All credit for this shot should go to ThOnda really. All I did was click the camera button for a few seconds.

    Anyway..... This thing is called a rope light. It's like a rope with lots of lights in it.... ;) Camera on a tripod. While in manual mode, I set the aperture to f5.6 and the shutter to bulb. Held the shutter button down for 16secs while ThOnda spun that thing round and round like a cowboy on a rodeo extravaganza....... I probably let the button go by accident. :D Great fun.....

    I don't think the OP needs them though....

    For some reason I keep missing all these Photo's of the week, sweet shot Dave. You sure made Thonda the model work for this shot ;)

    In total agreement...

    The link might just send the rest of us off to buy some rope light and entertain our families, now that the evenings (unseasonably) seem to be drawing in...
