Painting with Light
Enhancing natural landscapes with "super"-natural light

This article is not about "painter of light" Thomas Kinkade, but
rather less-established and extremely talented photographers, who
use dynamic electric light patterns to enhance the nature's given
landscapes, or our bleak industrial environments. In every case
something luminous and strangely mesmerizing is brought "to
light", transforming the photograph into an entirely different
experience, and making our hearts beat faster.

It all started with Eric Staller

Eric Staller <http://ericstaller.com/> is a sculptor more known
for the permanent artwork in public places, but also for his
experimentation with light. His light drawings and sculptures
date as far back as the late 70s (definitely in-line with the
disco-era sensibilities). He was perhaps the first photographer
to paint light into live urban environment:

Some of these New York light-scapes still look like perfect
examples of the technique. Simply glorious, after all these
years.

No Lens, Only Intricate Light

Alan Jaras <http://www.flickr.com/photos/alanjaras> (aka
"Reciprocity") captures surreal refraction patterns of light,
passing through molded plastic. Amazingly, these photos are made
the "natural way", without the use of a camera lens, or
retouching by Photoshop. His flickr photostream is one of the
most interesting and adventurous on the web.

Light Among the Ruins

Abandoned & ghastly places achieve a new license to life with
these urban light explorations. The nameless artists responsible
for these "graffitis of light" perhaps live somewhere nearby and
make it their creative statement to turn ugly venues into
canvases of "cleansing" light.

Some other examples of "painting with light":

Mystery and Melancholy of a Street

One word: "heavenly". This is how you can describe the
apparitions created by group LICHTFAKTOR
<http://www.behance.net/LICHTFAKTOR> . We already wrote about
their previous works
<http://www.darkroastedblend.com/2007/07/best-graffiti-showcase.h\
tml> , but it seems that angels of creativity continue to bestow
their visitations upon this enlightened urban clan. They go into
the night and return with transcendental glowing creations...
like these:

Spiritual Glow

Dean Chamberlain <http://deanchamberlain.com/> takes the
inherent glow that all mysterious worship places evoke in our
heart, and brings it to the screen - his temple & palace
interiors are uplifting and mystifying at the same time:

Do you like seaside? Now you do.

It's impossible not to fall in love with the sea and the coast
when seeing photography of Toby Keller <http://www.burnblue.com/>
, aka BurnBlue. His light painting technique is often subtle, and
it's hard to tell where the natural light ends and the
"super"-natural light begins. Waves provide the long-exposure
soft glow, and deep blue ghost-like apparitions seem to lure us,
mere mortals, into their marvelous portals, and into an infinite
light. (you have to excuse my purple prose, these photos are
simply too magical).

And yet, no matter how skillful you are as a painter, natural
light is still the winner. Here is very evocative shot of
moonlight at sea:

and a riot of colors during sunset:

2.: High-Speed Liquid Photography! (Prishi)

Stunning High-Speed Liquid Photography!
Liquid Art & droplet photography

It takes great skill (and good high speed photography equipment)
to create such frozen-in-time compositions, revealing the
inherent energy, the dynamics of flowing water and the beauty of
it all! Some artists substitute water with more viscous liquids,
producing even more lava-lamp-like effects. But often just
playing with coloring and light is enough to make an effective
picture. In this article, we will try to cover a large variety of
stunning high-speed liquid photography.

Luiz Luxvich makes startlingly clear images of splashing water

This master from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has a good presence on
flickr, so make sure to check out the rest of his colorful
creations.

Amazingly, water looks simply great without any added coloring,
like in these shots from the French photographer

Liquid Sculptures of Martin Waugh

Martin Waugh at Liquid Sculpture
<http://www.liquidsculpture.com/> is perhaps the most famous
artist in this "sub-genre". His works are described as full of
"fun, whimsy and wonder". The full gallery is here
<http://www.liquidsculpture.com/fine_art/index.htm> , and it is
exceptional.

Not mercury, not ice - just water... splendid water:

Woke up one morning, saw this thing crawling toward me across the
sink... decided to go to sleep some more -

You're a special friend
Who I know is always there
Someone to share my life with
Every hope, dream, and care

Whenever I feel sad, or alone
You're always there to make me smile
It's friends like you who I know
Won't leave me after a while

Special friends like you
mean the world to me
When I think of something special
It is your face I see

All the time I've spent with you
Puts a smile upon my face
I hope one day I'll be with you again
Somehow, Sometime, someplace

You mean alot to me and I would
Do anything in the world for you
So, no matter what's going on in your life
Just know you have someone to turn to.

You're a special person
I care alot about you
I wish I could say how special you are
Only if you knew...
