OMG that must have been a very slow shutter speed....

Yes it was, apparently it took ages, and he did it at night.

My son does it with his camera but not on that level....

But at least he is having a go which is a good thing. You should show him these for inspiration.

Wow !!!

I take it you like them Comrade 

lovely,

but it reminds me of when i sit with this boring bloke in the pub, i doubt we look that spectacular

Now when I look at this picture I will think of you and this fella playing dominos - it sorta looks like they may be playing a game.

I just did he's very impressed..

Excellent 

Photography is a brilliant hobby/profession.

It is, he loves it, he leaves school next year and is going to Uni to do Photo journalism so he'll have more than one trade out of that..

I do indeed. 

All from light trails from a single LED ? 

impressive.

Yes, my understanding is that it takes the artists a long time to achieve the results. I will try and find a link to the artist as I want to read further.

they're cool 

they're by Janne Parviainen

LINK

Thanks for the link, saved me a bit of typing. 

I wasn't being a google wizard know-it-all..     as soon as I saw the pics you'd posted I knew my friend at work would be interested in them

I work for a company that produces art market indices -  we grab all the data on art sales from the top 30 auction houses worldwide.   My bessie works with me, she is the one that has the art background..    I am the computer geek person 

anyways..  I showed her Janne's work today & she loves it too (in fact she used to produce very similar paintings using paint...    I have two hanging in my house )
