Description Standing in The Heart of The Ocean, Hidding behind the walls of time.
The secrets of life are hidden inside, with All the unknown questions and the unknown enigmas.

Standing inside the Heart of the Ocean, from the begining of life, alone, Behind the walls of time.
Watching Life, Watching Death, Watching the world changing in Time.

Standing In A deep ocean with A burning heart inside, waiting to fade away, to be away,
with Another Heart and another Ocean.

-----------------------------------------

The shot was taken in 'Beit Yanai Beach' next to Netanya, Israel.
this is not A manipulation.
I used A technique called Painting with light.

in this specific shot I set the white balance to the coldest Temperture (2500 kelvin) to get the blue effect.
I expused for 30 seconds and with the help of a little flashlight I ran like crazy in the frame during the exposure and "painted with light" the areas I wanted.
the flashlight made the blue light you're seeing on the stone and in the sky.
it was hard and I made alot of experiments until I got this one to satisfy me.

- For more information on How to paint with light I recomend everyone to check Kil1k's Tutorial - Long Exposure Light Painting
- I suggest you'll run a search on painting with light too, there are many things you can create with it.

at which time did you take the pic ? Was it already totally dark or still some daylight ?Is the light along the horizon your flashlight too?
I must try this - I am affascinated by your work!

NadavDov In reply to riviera2008 [2008-09-13 15:21:00 +0000 UTC]

hey,
it was taken something like 30 minutes after the sunset at almost night time.
the light you see from the horizon is a mixture of A constant waves and some lights from the beach.

Thank you

I love painting with light. But how on earth did you get the flashlight that high? Maybe its just the picture, but it looks like you would have to be extremely tall to get it that high.

Wreckovski [2007-05-12 21:55:48 +0000 UTC]

יש לי שאלה מוזרה מעט.

המצלמה לא תפסה אותך בגלל שהתרוצצת נורא מהר?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

NadavDov In reply to Wreckovski [2007-05-13 14:27:37 +0000 UTC]

בגלל החשיפה הארוכה יחסית ובגלל שלא עמדתי במקום אחד אלא רצתי ממקום למקום המצלמה תפסה אותי מרוח מאוד בפריים בצורה כזו שבקושי רואים אותי.
אם תביט היטב על החלק העליון של העמוד השמאלי תוכל לראות מריחה כזו, זה אני

Very nice! I just tried this technique the other day. (had to wait for the weather to cooperate...lol) I read about it in one of the photography magazines, I think it was Digital Camera. Anyway, I think your first attempt turned out much better than mine. Did you mean to do the streak or was it a happy accident? lol I know you can get rid of streaks by turning your light off when you run in front of the camera. Just thought I'd mention it incase you didn't know. Great job!
