Johanna again (sorry, but this subject is just too much fun)
I tried to take some vampire photos with my camera using a tripod, long shutter speeds and a match to get a 'glow' affect but without much success. The mug shots only created horrible shadows behind my head and on my face. The profile ones worked a bit better. Maybe i'll try tomorrow with a different light source.
This is the best of the lot (there was a lot of running to the light switch, running into position and trying to light the match and get in shot before the time ran out etc...)
Then I saw Emma's post and wanted to have a go. I tried to think of what light I could use and remembered Charlie has these little finger lights in lots of different colours (the same ones I sent you Bindi). Two hours and 1000 pictures later...here is a taste. (We had so much fun because we had the music turned up and everyone had lights on and it was like a disco!)
I am only just discovering the joys of the tripod and am loving it. This is a very fun topic. I haven't even ventured into the night yet. Can we do heaps of posts per assignment?

These are really neat Johanna! I really want to take some cool shots like this now.
I think they are great as well. I especially like the 2nd & 3rd one = when you can make out a figure in the shot.
(second and third - in the bottom set)
The match lit one is really lovely as well. I think it would be nice using the light from a match/candle, without having the light source in the photo - just having your face.
Great imagination for these shots! I like how everyone's shots are so different.
