Light Painting -- 'road art'
About an hour and a half from the DFW area someone, though nobody seems to know who, spend much time and effort creating some road side art. It's far enough from DFW to be fairly dark and I had hopes of catching the Milky Way in some of the shots. That didn't happen; either it wasn't dark (late?) enough, or there was to much dust in the air.
All were taken with a 7d and a Tokina 11-16 2.8 lens. Exposure was ~30 seconds with an ISO of 800 or 1600 at f2.8 except the first shot which was a -2/0/+2 HDR (F8/ISO 100 aperture priority). My son went with me and we teamed up painting the sculptures with small flashlights during the exposures. Note the "legs" on the "bug". The "Moonflowers" were made from old radial engines of some sort. Wish I'd seen the "Flower" contest... I'd have entered this. Critiques welcome.... |

They are in a field just out side of Saint Jo, which is west of Gainsville about 30 miles or so (past Muenster) on 82. Intersection of FM 677 and FM 3206. |
