Day 14: Light Painting

The lens converter came just in time for today's challenge: light painting.  I marked up saran wrap with a pink sharpie, wrapped it around a small flashlight, and angled it away from the camera to get these affects.

I used a 50mm EOS Canon lens on a Nikon 1 J4 mirrorless camera to get these shots.  With Nikon lenses, the camera will only "kind of" let me do manual, and will only take photos when the CAMERA thinks a photo should be taken.  I was getting incredibly frustrated.  Since I recently acquired a couple EOS 650 SLR Canon film cameras with 3 different lenses, I decided to buy a cheap $20 converter and see if I could get better results.  So much better.

If you can't tell what's going on, I was playing with different ISO settings and shutter speed settings.  A heart, two says "Jessi" and one says "love." Well, that's what they're supposed to be.  My first time trying light painting photos.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
