Light Painting Project with Wakeboards at Night – PictureCorrect

Light Painting Project with Wakeboards at Night – PictureCorrect: "We’ve discussed the concept of light painting before, but this video taken at the Orlando Watersports Complex brings the practice to a whole new level. Instead of premeditated shapes and patterns being drawn onto the image, photographer Patrick Rochon (in a project sponsored by Red Bull) attaches strip lights onto wakeboards and has athletes perform their manoeuvres in the dark. This creates streaks and shapes that follow the incredible movements of the wakeboarders as they fly across the water’s surface, refracting coloured rays through the spray at their feet. It all makes for stunning photographs of natural patterns of motion that arise from this aquatic sport (for those of you reading this by email, the video can be seen here):"
