Light painting doesn’t require expensive or elaborate tools. Most of my images are created with a small LED flashlight, (with a simple diffuser of my own design that can be easily made by you, or purchased on my Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/RakeTheLight), a small 4”x6” LED panel, and a scrim (diffusion panel). That’s it! Two light sources and two modifiers. (In my landscape work, I use a larger LED panel).
