Here Be Dragons

Here Be Dragons

This is Denise’s dragon - and as no self-respecting mythical serpent should be denied the ability to set things on fire, I decided to lightpaint in a little fiery breath. No models were singed in the making of this image…

    what is it on? is it a tattoo or just a painting? it does look really awesome though. it’d be cool if you wrote back

    Josh,

    It’s a photograph of a tattoo on the model’s thigh. Lightpainting refers
    to the way that it was lit, and the way that the “flames” were crated -
    i.e. with a small flashlight bulb during a long exposure.

    There’s another photograph of the model in the Infrared gallery, where you
    can see the positioning of the tattoo.

    Dave
