For the series I decided to do it on light drawing. The first six are me setting the timer on my camera then standing in the dark making shapes. After awhile i saw these see threw blue , red, and clear glasses. I placed the same light i used for the light drawing behind and some inside. I also filled it with water to get a distorted kind of effect. Some of my photos were really blury of kind of noisy, so I messed around with the aperture and it fixed it up. I also darkened the levels so the light would pop out more and less light from the background if there happened to be any. I tried putting food coloring in a clear cup and putting near a white background but the fish tank me and denelle broke would have worked better. I liked the work of a guy by the name Michael Marciano. I also toyed with this topic at the beginning of the year. I liked it so much I wanted to try different stuff with light and photography. http://www.michaelmarciano.com/. There is the link if you want to check it out. His photography isn’t straight light work, but incorporates it into and with other atmospheres

Brandon,
These are quite the abstract images that can really make the viewer think. Good job trying something different and pushing your boundaries.
The third from the bottom is my favorite out of all of them. We get the shape of the glass as well as the abstract light streaks around it. Nice work.
