Photos that incorporate light painting are fascinating. Usually it involves a person painting with a light source while leaving the shutter of the camera open during the process. Now imagine strapping different colored LEDs to a wakeboard and photographing the wakeboarders doing their thing. The result is fantastic!
Mike Dowdy, Adam Errington, and Dallas Friday strap lights to their wakeboards and join with light painter, Patrick Rochon, in an effort to capture the inherent emotion and creativity of athleticism.

Here’s the Behind the Scenes of “Camera Warfare.” Devin Graham directed this tongue-in-cheek video of WWII warring factions using cameras instead of guns. No Canon DSLRs [used as props as well as to film the video] were harmed in the making of this video.

This is a trailer video of photographer Gregory Crewdson at work. It’s a behind the scenes view of how he sets up for a shoot and gives an intimate peek into the creative process behind his images.

The x-ray image is the same size as the object being photographed, so you can imagine the amount of work involved when taking pictures of large objects like a car, a bus and an airplane. A mini cooper car can consist of 300 individual images of the doors, seats, tires, etc. all digitally reassembled into a photo. Where “people” pictures are concerned, he uses dead people and skeletons.
