Spintop Energized | 645 sec

The second of the Spintop Series (the first is this one, in case you wonder). What I like most about this shot are the broken star trails. Because we often work with the cover technique during the exposures you can see the times we've covered up the lens, so no light would come through, in the trails. Why we'd do something like that? Well, for some light there's no need to be in the picture (e.g. when you have to turn a device on or off, or just take it away from the image region), therefore we rather cover the lens and keep everything in one single exposure than working with photoshop afterwards.

As always this light painting was created only with light within one single exposure. The photograph was not digitally manipulated afterwards.
