Night Juggler

 

Last night my daughter, her fiance and I
went out and experimented photographing with glow sticks. 
 We just started to get the hang of things...
here are some pointers:
  1. Use more than one glow stick in your hand - it is brighter.
  2. Blue glow sticks are weak, and don't light up much.
  3. Dress in black as much as possible.
  4. Remember a flashlight, tripod, and bug spray.
  5. Use a slow steady movement or the light is jerky,' - we are still working on that one.
  6. Use the bulb setting on the camera.  My settings were ISO 100, F5.6 to 8, bulb

It was fun!
