Light Painting an Orb always goes - Part two at Kelchsteine in Saxony

2020_07_11-Oybin (91)-LR-2.jpg

You may have seen the original post from a week ago "Saxony Mountains - Orb Light Painting". This is the backside of the Kelchstein Rock Formation in the mountain range close to the southern border of Germany.

Using a circular plexiglass light blade I spun the lit blade around my shoulder. This was pretty much one of my very last shots of the night. As the sun was rising it gave me the early morning blue hour.

What happened here?

At first, I would shed the shadow through a bush on the right, then jump under the rock formation and start spinning the Orb. After that, I walk to the right and lit up the main hoodoo through some more trees and created more texture on the rock, I applied white as well as some red light. The rock formation has a natural reddish-orange color so it was easy to uncover some colorful areas.

I hope it was informative and maybe also inspirational. If you have more questions please do not hesitate. I am happy to share my knowledge.
