What is Light Painting and How Does it Work?
Things You Will Need
A camera with manual settings and bulb (B) mode.
A sturdy tripod.
A shutter release cable with locking mechanism or remote with timer function.
A light source of some kind. This could be a flashlight, an LED, a neon glow stick, even a flash unit.
A dark environment. You can work indoors in a room with all the lights turned out and windows blocked, or you can work outdoors at nighttime.

October
at the Outer Banks is the perfect time to be there. Empty beaches,
clear air, warm temperatures, and the sunrises and sunsets are the most
spectacular of the year. We will shoot sunrises and sunsets,
lighthouses, sand dunes, fishing villages, birds, and more. Elevate your
photography to a higher level. More information 
The
mystique of Chincoteague is compelling. It has calm inland waters,
exciting ocean views, and of course its famous wild horses. We've timed
this workshop to coincide with the fall bird migration. We plan to
photograph horses, a variety of bird species, great sunrises and
sunsets, harbor scenes, and more. More information
