A ball of light within a ball of light. by keokiin itookapicture

The tutorial I followed to make this is here. It's pretty straightforward to build, but you need to be able to do a little soldering to make it. Basically, it's a bunch of LEDs on a length of speaker wire.

To make the photograph you set the camera on a tripod in bulb mode (f11 or so), and make the ball by spinning the LEDS in a circle and rotate about a central point. Total exposure is about 100 seconds.

Thanks. Basically it's a bunch of LED lights at the end of ~3ft of speakerwire. You spin the led lights in a circle and rotate around to create the light ball effect. The exposure is 95 seconds.

This is hand held, 35 mm (51 mm equiv.) 1/60s, f/1.8, ISO 1400. I had purple fringing on the edges of the photo (not chromatic aberration, just sensor noise), so I had to convert it to black and white.

Cool list. Wouldn't it be easier to reverse the columns and rows so we can scroll vertical instead of horizontal?

I agree, it needs to be re-cropped. What I would do is chop off the bottom and top, and re-crop it so that the long side is horizontal. The posts that the birds are sitting on is a nice element in the photo and they don't stand out when the long edge of the photo is vertical. I'd try to put the birds in the top third of the frame. This may put the horizon in the middle of the frame, which generally is a no-no but you may be able to get away with it here.

I took that photo! I thought it was a nice change for the usual "STOP DRIVING" graffiti that we see in Berkeley.

How is this different from the prey project which does very similar things? Its free for up to three devices, including smart phones like my android phone.

I can't believe street photography wasn't an option. I guess I'm an 'other'.
