Sooo… Let’s start by apologizing for not having posted anything here over the past few weeks (Say: 2 months). I went back to Westende – my hometown – for some vacationing (and working offline), so I didn’t really get to sit near my computer during that time (which was pretty cool for a change). I did however write a workshop on creating a basic picture viewer with XML in Flash for the Dutch magazine Publish which will be published in October 09.
Since a few days now, I’m back in Kortrijk. I’m still in the process of getting back used to being here, but I think I’m doing fine.

Yesterday night (actually early this morning) I decided to go out to shoot some pictures. For some time now I really wanted to experiment with a technique which is known as ‘lightpainting’. Basically it is nothing but using long exposures to shoot the picture and ‘painting’ the area you want to put extra light on with a flash light. You can create some pretty amazing stuff with that. I’ll try to create a video tutorial showing an actual example of what to do, and how to do it.

Tonight were my first tryouts, and I’m pretty happy with the results so far. Here are a few shots. Feel free to check out more of those on my Flickr page!
