Light Painting

For todays session the class and I were introduced to Light Painting.
'Light Painting is when a light source is used to "paint" a picture. It requires a long shutter speed (to capture light) and a tripod to imobilize the camera as movement of it will be captured in your image.'
I was not positioned in the best of places (this over exposed my images showing the draw'ees) but here are examples of some of the images I had taken.

Aperture - f/3.5
Shutter Speed - 8 sec.
Focal Length - 18mm
ISO - 100

Aperture - f/3.5
Shutter Speed - 13 sec.
Focal Length - 18mm
ISO - 100
 
Aperture - f/3.5
Shutter Speed - 10 sec.
Focal Length - 18mm
ISO - 100

Aperture - f/4.2
Shutter Speed - 13 sec.
Focal Length - 26mm
ISO - 100

Soon after these pictures were taken, we was asked to go out and get pictures of light painting.
FACT - Light Painting isn't as effect in light then it is in the dark
Despite this fact we was sent out in the daylight to get some pictures. =]
 
Me and a few other student, made our way towards town looking looking for a dark, sutiable place to create our pictures. Our main idea for a dark place was "car park" which lead us to Selfridges Car Park.
On the bottom floor of this car park we found a dark spot under where cars proceed up to the next floor and took the following pictures:
