What an awesome activity to share with my photography class. These are some images I took but my students went wild with this one and had an awesome time. For any photography teachers out there, this is a super fun activity for students and its a great way to teach them about Aperture and Shutter Speed as well. We just turned off all the lights in the class room then, waving my phone around, I let them try taking pictures of the light streaking across their cameras. I then let them get into groups and take turns taking pictures and streaking the light. I had to work with many of them to help them get their aperture and shutter speed to the right setting. Many of then though, did not have cameras that let you adjust the aperture and shutter speed so we had to play around with the pre set settings to optimize their light streaks. Many of them really got excited about trying to make shapes or spelling things out. Even if you are not a photography teacher or into photography, this is just fun to do just for the heck of it.
Really cool pictures and cool idea. Looks like you had a lot of fun.
