drawn with light.

I expect some flack for not posting this on the "abstract" thread.

As an abstract, I like everything except the stars. But since you indicate it's for the 4th of July it's creative and well done.

Nice, Bob.

But shouldn't you have posted it in the Street Showcase?    :D

I didn't think  Russ would approve. Besides, I "drew" the image in my basement. ...Hardly any work was done in post.

I think it's pretty neat but I also don't care for the stars. So you light painted it? Curious how it was created, stars and all.

I used a stencil of a star placed over a flashlight. My kit consisted of six flashlights.  The drawing took 90 seconds. I practiced a lot.

Well Russ, I'm mixing things up a bit. I'm in the process of making a robotic light painting machine and have been spending a lot of time in the studio/lab tinkering. I promise I've not gone off the deep end, at least not entirely.

Sounds like a job killer to me! What will all the poor displaced light painters do once the robots have taken all their jobs?!?!
