Great video mate, heaps of very useful tips & in-depth explanation of your planning/gear etc. You nailed even the first attempt, loved those shots as well! The image at 9:54 is absolutely spectacular, loved the way you framed that, all those tiny particles shooting everywhere, the light trails etc. = MAGiC! 🎉 Also the last two more abstract frames were great! Thanks for sharing buddy:)

[@colinstalker]

Yeah, mate, it's a lot of fun and the anticipation of waiting to see what it looks like in camera is a buzz. Really happy the video and images portrayed how the night unfolded. Cheers mate!

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun with that!

[@colinstalker]

Ben, yeah mate! I don't get out much at night these days 😂 but this was fun.

A very well explained the tricks and tips of the wire wool … love the idea is your lights and we might be giving it a go with led .. have done a lot with out led but it will be fun to mix with led too …thanks for sharing your secrets 🙏🏻🙏🏻😍😍

[@colinstalker]

Manu, thank you, mate.I always appreciate your feedback. Yep, the lights just add a little difference and worth a try. All the best buddy!

An awesome fun vlog mate! 👍🏼It just goes to show people that you don't need to go out and buy all the expensive lighting equipment to create amazing light photos.... You've given me the bug now and I think I know the prime spot to try it out 🤔 I can imagine you and your daughter had so much fun creating the photos. Its hard to pick which one I like the most as they are ALL amazing photos. I do love the orb photo where it looks like its just hovering above the rock but is also illuminating the rock and the surrounding area 👌🏻 Great vlog and thank you for the time and effort you put into making these vlogs for us all to enjoy mate! 👍🏼👍🏼 Cheers!

[@colinstalker]

Shane, thank you for your kind words mate. You have to try it mate it's so much fun and so interesting to see the results as every time it's different. Yep that orb on the rock was a keeper as seen as I saw it on playback. All the best and thank you again for your support.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Pretty cool images Colin. You certainly get lots of different patterns in the long exposures. Thanks for sharing mate, looks like fun 👍🙏

[@colinstalker]

Fabulous Colin, some great tips on how to start out on the cheap and the final effects were pretty cool. Glad you managed to get to the rock it seemed the perfect spot to showcase the light and steel wool. Loved it 🙏🙏🙏

[@colinstalker]

Hey Izzy, thank you mate. Yep, the rock worked out well, although my legs felt it getting up and down after each image. 😂 Always appreciate your feedback and support mate. All the best 🙏

[@IzzyAbuleelaPhotography]

@@colinstalker more than welcome Col… keep ‘em coming 🙏

[@klickinthewild]

Well wasn't that a fun video - great job Colin 👍 I liked the combination of the orb and the coloured lighting - you got some great results here. We've done a few of these and I think you've just inspired me to get the kit out and see what we can get. All the best my friend 👍

[@colinstalker]

Thanks Brian.Yep mate a lot of fun, some hits, and misses. I am sure it would make a good Master's activity. All the best mate 🙏

[@ValerieMisaPhotography]

Amazing video Colin - I really loved this one! Really well put together with some fantastic footage, practical and helpful tips to help beginners get started and gorgeous photos to top it off. So mesmerising and I was hooked watching this the whole way through. Really admire your creativity and it was awesome to see you having lots of fun out there! I think you should definitely do a workshop on this - so fascinating and I'd be first to sign up! Thanks for sharing your wonderful art! 🙏🙏

[@colinstalker]

Thank you Valerie you are very kind 😊 It's amazing what can be achieved in the night sky with some in expensive items and a desire to experiment. So glad you enjoyed the video, and if you're ever up my way, I would be happy help. Have a wonderful week 😊

We did some light painting with a couple models and steel wool spinning with the group I am with last week. Lots of fun and something a bit different to do.

[@colinstalker]

Mark, yeah, mate it's a lot of fun and something to mix it up a little.
