              Eric Curry Light Paints A Massive B-25 Bomber

              eric curry bomber light paint small Eric Curry Light Paints A Massive B 25 Bomber Eric Curry is a photographer who specializes in painting with light. Unlike using strobes to exposure your photos, painting with light requires you to use long exposures and constant light sources to effectively “paint” over your subject and capture it on your sensor. The newest image in Eric’s American Pride and Passion series is one of the most complex light painting images I’ve ever seen and the behind the scenes video shows just how much work goes into such a big project. If you enjoy these types of images, be sure to click on Eric’s website to see many more examples of his layered light painting photographs.

                Can you guys make a small tutorial on this but the Photoshop part of it and how can you take these photos without capturing the movement of the talent?

                I’d assume they would just stand still and you’d pound them with as much light as possible with either a high ISO or fairly wide aperture.  Then just layer all the images (shot on a tripod) and start masking them in photoshop.

                Honestly this photo seems way easier to do with actual strobes than light painting.  Maybe it’s because I don’t do a lot of light painting :)

                Spending this amount of time on one single frame
                comes to a price … I’m lucky to see that now …
