Le Nez en l'Air (part 12) Lightpainting on Hive

Hi everyone,

During spring 2025, I took part to the Nez en l'Air festival #3.

The concept is simple : a bunch of local artists from Nantes decided to settle into the vineyards during 4 days. We were 5 or 6 per domains, with 4 domains so it makes a total of 22 artists. Painters, sculptors, photographers, drawers, upcycling artists...

I built a black box to do lightpainting during daylight. I made portraits of visitors and, of course, I invited people to try to do lightpainting.

Here are pictures I made when I visited the domains in january for scouting :

140s 16mm f/6.3 100 ISO

30s 16mm f/6.3 100 ISO

55s 16mm f/6.3 100 ISO

102s 16mm f/6.3 100 ISO

84s 16mm f/6.3 100 ISO

Lightpainting created in real time, captured to the camera in a single photographic frame. SOOC No layers /no Photoshop / no editing except minor adjustments (lens correction profite, WB, contrast (+12)) and addition of my logo.

WHAT IS LIGHTPAINTING? Lightpainting is a photographic technique in which exposures are made by moving a hand-held light source while taking a long exposure photograph, either to illuminate a subject or to shine a point of light directly at the camera, or by moving the camera itself during exposure. Nothing is added or removed in post processing.
