What Is Light Graffiti?



Did anyone of u watch the tv programme last night?. It was on M3/ Majalah 3 reviewing about Light Graffiti and about a group called HLG: Hikarimoji( wondering what this means) Light Graffiti from Malaysia. Found about their blog here:.http://hikarimoji.blogspot.com/ . Very interesting!..

Would like to learn the techniques!.. Is it possible by using non- DSLR?.. Anybody can give your opinion here?..

Light painting, also known as light drawing or light graffiti is a photographic technique in which exposures are made usually at night or in a darkened room by moving a hand-held light source or by moving the camera. In many cases the light source itself does not have to appear in the image. The term light painting also encompasses images lit from outside the frame with hand-held light sources. The first known photographer to use this technique was Man Ray in his series "Space Writing" created in 1935. The photographer Ellen Carey discovered Man Ray's signature signed by penlight nearly 74 years after the pictures had been taken
