This image was created on the Badwater salt flats in Death Valley National Park. I had a flashlight with three colors of LED light. During this single 30 second exposure I lit each color for close to 10 seconds while waving my arm around up and down (which traces a sphere, like a pumpkin).
The Badwater salt flats are particularly good for light painting, since there’s minimal light pollution and the white surface reflects light well.
