Ghosts of Mister Bill

This painting with light exercise was a joint collaboration, between me and Mister Bill last summer at the cabin. That’s Bill in the photo. It’s after dark on the beach. Bill has a too bright LED flashlight that he flicked on for a second or less. He would stop, illuminate himself, walk a few steps and repeat. Like most of my Canon 5D photography experiments last summer, this one wasn’t as successful as I had hoped it would be. The combination of long exposure photography and the motion of the subject led to a blurry photo. It makes Bill appear like an apparition. The summer season is rolling around again and with it another trip to the cabin and with that more chances to play with photography.
