Title: Flamenco in the dunes - couple of pics
Post by: tamara_k on June 28, 2013, 11:52:01 AM
Hi all,

here is just couple of pics from yesterday's photoshoot in the dunes. I like them so much myself, I just can't help posting them everywhere - hope you enjoy them :)

if you are into flamenco at all, you probably know the model :)

Magnificent. :)

How did you manage to get the ones with the sparklers to turn out like that Tamara?

you need a camera the can do long exposures, fifi. The longs sparklers from Fuerchina only last about 30 seconds, so 30 second is sufficient, and I think many cameras can do that.

you support your camera somehow - tripod or something other steady, frame the shot, start the sparkler, run into the position and "paint" as fast as you can. To get a "sphere" turn around on one spot, making big circles with the sparkler, but of course yo can do something different.

Thanks Tamara. I doubt that my camera is good enough for anything like that. All of your photos are fabulous. :)

and now I can't stop making those :)

I think my fire-drawing skills are improving, although the spiral could have been more smooth and symmetrical :)
