Background Lighting Procedure - Light Painting
How each lighting effect builds up to a final Light Painting Image.

At first I started to light up the walls of the little chapel ruin to see how much time I will have and see what's the best angle to shine the light to get some nice texture of the wall.

After I confirmed that, yes there is enough time I would go and test if I can add the Light Plants to the wall. That added a few seconds to the exposure, yet it did not overexpose the image in any way. So yes there is more room for additional light features.

Then I would repeat the same procedure, but on top of that I also go behind the chapel and shed light into the forest. Comparing the different effects I can then decide more on my composition. What works and what I better do not. Not always more is better. Sometimes I would end up liking the early stage lighting the most. But hey I can do that when I come home.

So after you have seen all the stages. What is your favorite? Number 1? 2 ...3 ...4?
