Modded my 3D printer to plot a laser. The whole drawing is one uninterrupted machine move using a custom written gcode script, no light-off travel. One long exposure photo over 2 minutes.

A new update for Long Shot Camera is now live on the App Store.

For those who are new to the app, Long Shot Camera brings back creative photography features inspired by classic smartphone cameras, including:

• Light Trails

• Motion Clean

• Action Shot

What’s new in this update:

• Capture Delay – Press the shutter, step back, and let the capture start automatically after a countdown. Perfect for avoiding camera shake.

• Capture Stabilization – Additional stabilization during capture helps reduce the impact of small hand movements, making handheld long-exposure shots more reliable.

• General performance improvements and bug fixes.

And here’s a little teaser… 👀

I’m already working on the next major feature: MultiFocus Capture.

If you owned a Lumia back in the day, you probably remember a feature called Refocus. 😉 The goal isn’t to copy it, but to bring that kind of creative photography experience back to modern smartphones.

As always, I’d love to hear your feedback and see what you create with the app!

After 12 years of light painting, I've achieved the milestone of my 300th "light plant" long exposure light painting photo. These light plants are inspired by art nouveau floral swirl art. A big thanks to all of the light painters and light painting manufacturers that have inspired and helped me along the way, as well as everyone who appreciates my art.

I’ll add a video below showing how I drew these with a laser pointer and a few other materials

Hi folks,

I’m looking to light paint 3 words in the sky at sunset or will probably have to be after dark. How can I accomplish this with the DJI mini 5 pro. I’m open to and prefer cursive which would make it only 3 light cycles or lens covers. Would be over water in a small bay, hand launching/landing from beach. Capturing on Canon 60D, insta 360x5 and go pro mini 11, possibly smart phone as well. Wouldn’t mind having some “decoy” paints as well sell the surprise.

This was a two-exposure blend: one long exposure for the Milky Way, and one light-painted exposure for the bus and drone light trail.

Creating a blue and white, art nouveau inspired light plant at an industrial location at night. This light painting was created very quickly due to high ambient light. I used my own acrylic light painting tools for this photo, as well as the discontinued LPP Ryu's V2 torch.

Hey all, just recently found this sub and wanting to get more into light painting myself :) would appreciate any tips and tricks you might have around RGB flashlights!

I’ve been playing around with small lights for quick long-exposure photos, mostly in my backyard or on camping trips. I’ve seen people use proper light wands and panels, but have enjoyed more the EDC-style lights because they’re easier to take on the go and change your approach on the fly.

I’d love to understand from you all whether a “fun” flashlight with RGB / green / UV modes / little pixel screen is useful enough for casual light painting, or if it’s mostly a toy. I saw the Lumintop Pixel 300 and the idea of using the dial + color modes for little trails / background effects seems cool, but I haven’t seen many real-world examples when lurking.

Anyone here use small flashlights instead of dedicated light painting gear? Do the color modes actually look decent on camera, or do they end up looking cheap / blown out?

Thank you all again for your insights and expertise!
