Thanks for the giveaway, MascaratumB!

I'm not in this one, but I appreciate giveaways on BLF.

17 – Remember: ALWAYS COMPLY WITH BLF RULES !!!!

Not in, but thanks for the GAW. May the winner enjoy this light

So nice, that after a long period of relative silence, things like GAW’s are returning.
This time I’m not in: better odds for the rest. No pun intended.
But this GAW demands a certain level of creativity. That’s so not me.

Thank you for running a GAW. You beat me to it.
Seriously, next GAW will be done by me.

When’s the free “iPad Pro” GAW happening?? I mean the one with the 12.9” XDR screen and the M1 processor!

I will join this, thanks for the giveaway MB! Reminds me that I still need to do my 10.000 posts giveaway

This is not so much lightpainting but light blasting, using the vir-o-blast adapted as blf-o-blast for the occasion, aimed at my ever so tolerant neighbour’s roof at 40 meters away

My friend, I will never beat you in your kindness
As for the creativity, please note that you have 2 options, on points #5 and #6. So, I am sure you can always try to fit some good thoughts to enter this GAW in case you want to!

BTW, as an incentive, here’s my single mode Tool AA Panda White, with orange lighted tailswitch

Ahah, I guess “that” GAW is not “this” GAW! I ain’t that rich…yet
In case you wanna enter the GAW, feel free for it

No, I wasn’t talking about your GAW in particular, just about other GAW nexttime. Your GAW is already quite generous. I mean you’re giving away the FW! I guess I’ll enter and see what I can come up with!

Thanks for the generous give away MascaratumB!

Here is my first attempt at light painting, I’m sorry if it’s crap.

I used a D4V2 xpl-hi and a Panasonic ZS100 camera

Some sort of not so secret code ….

Welcome Bort

working on my entry, it sorta involves a flashlight, kinda lots of ws2812 leds and a teensy 3.6 and a sd card and a usb power pack ( powered by lithium bats)

first update, 2 images, once It gets dark and I have time, I’ll post the final image. (my dad fell last night, called a ambulance to take him to hospital. just heard back, he broke his hip, so yeah lots of not fun stuff happening)

first image is the light painting stick, its 351 ws2812 leds on a 9 foot long bit of molding. on the backside is a teensy 3.6 with a micro sd card for image storage.

this next image is the teensy with buttons to controll the displaying of images.

I’ll leave it like this for now, just have to find the time to go outside at night, setup the tripod with my camera, setup long exposure, and actually take the photo. maybe tomorrow morning before the sun comes up or tonight after work.
okay here is the results, the picture is a lil blurry, I’ll have to fiddle with the camera some.

best I can do for now, only around 2 years of interest.

I’ll edit this later with a somewhat sexy pic or an attempt to tell an interesting (lie) story. 

   So I was cutting my grass when my idiot brother staggered out of the house and laid out on the driveway . I took a break and asked him what his problem was . He said  "Remember when you told me to buy those Samsung 30Q's  and I said Ultra-fires were just as good ...  "Maybe we should call the fire department "

going with #6:

Best
Lumintop
Freebie.

thanks.
