Impermanent Sculptures: Dancing Light Paintings #ArtTuesday

Vitor Schietti light painting 1

This series is mesmerizing with its trees raining light and magic portals made of sparks. I would love to see a making-of video to get inside the process. From Vitor Schietti‘s Impermanent Sculptures.

Via My Modern Met:

To create his light paintings, Schietti must perfectly time his exposures. After choosing a location, the photographer uses fireworks to produce streaks of light that are captured with a slow shutter speed. Sometimes a single shot is all he needs to cover a tree in energetic illumination. However, he also composites images together using Photoshop for maximum effect. According to Schietti, capturing an image is a precise dance of timing. “I use a neutral density filter to find the perfect balance between the brightness of the sparkles and the natural light by twilight, so it’s a fine and limited balance, only a few minutes each day.”
