Glowing Heart by Freelancer
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes. – 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Featured in the Group All About Hearts March 1st, 2009 / Took the 4th place in Top 10 in the Challenge Favorite light painting shot in the Group Painting with Light May 28, 2009 / Featured in the Group Painting with Light May 29, 2009 / I was playing with candle lights and slow speed yesterday. / It is quite fun. / This art-work is done from 4 photos mixed together using Photoshop CS2, using modes blending.

About This Group
This group is dedicated to the photographic technique of Light Painting. This technique involves long shutter speeds and either a camera with a stationary light source, or a moving light source with a stationary camera. In some cases, objects are also highlighted with dynamic lighting in a photograph.
This group is not for every blurry photograph you might have accidentally taken.
Please be sure to browse the group’s work to get an idea of that this means – this is not a group to just throw anything involving light into. This group exists to both display your work and help others learn, so be kind and share your techniques!
Also, please put in your description how you took the shot. We don’t want to accidentally reject images that were indeed taken via the light painting technique.
