Levitation!

Our first attempt at levitation photography.  It's pretty obvious how we did it.  Here is a link to our inspiration  from The Creators Project.  We'll keep trying, hopefully on a warmer day.

Light Painting

We had an interesting first attempt at some light painting.  This is nothing more than an LED penlight with a colored gel.  The camera is on bulb setting.  These exposures are all in the :20 range.  I'd like to try this again outside with some additional lights.  Pretty cool though and the kids had a great time.  Please take a moment to "Like" my photography page on Facebook.  Chris Swope Photography

Bridge Day 2012


Some cool shots from my phone on Bridge Day.  The New River Gorge Bridge is the longest arch bridge in the Western Hemisphere.  The bridge deck is more than 800 feet over the New River.  Perfect for BASE jumping.
