Lazy Susan

I used a glass lazy susan plate which can be spun around at various speeds

Lights covered in latex

After some trial and error I discovered that battery-powered lights with various coloured balloons stretched across gave a good effect

Lighting

I wanted an even lighting effect and with the camera positioned directly over the plate there was just room for a manually held lighting source

By varying the shutter speed and the speed at which the lazy susan was spun the light trails produced different patterns

Shutter speed: 4 secs

Shutter speed: 2 secs

Shutter speed: 1/100 sec

Shutter speed: 2 secs

Shutter speed: 10 secs

Shutter speed: 4 secs
