The double lens on the goggles didn't work too well as it created duplicates of the reflected LEDs which give the appearance of them being blurred so I also tried it out whilst wearing sunglasses.

Ring Light Reflections
I recently got some new ski goggles and thought I would do some more experimentation with my DIY LED ring light.

Painting the Darkness
When looking at Google Analytics recently I noticed that I've been getting a lot of hits on my various light painting posts.
With this in mind and having just completed soldering up my new and improved LED ring light I thought I'd revisit this popular topic by playing around with a few shots.
I started simply by rolling the LED ring light along my bed.
This created quite a cool geometric pattern so I then started to play around a bit more.
Followed by going along the floor, up the wall and across the ceiling!
Then I ran out of ideas!!
I think I will revisit this but am thinking of getting hold of (or making) a wheel with LEDs attached as rolling the ring light along smoothly is pretty difficult. Anyway...watch this space.
By the way, if you fancy trying out some light painting and your camera has manual settings then you don't need to make anything. As I've shown before in this post you can just use a phone as your light source or any old torch etc. Below is a quick shot that I took using my iPhone.

Give Me a Ring
Playing around with with some hard drive platter spacers. Didn't think it turned out too badly for a quick snap with the camera phone although did do a little post processing.
