The one I&#8217;m probably most proud of is the one where I had my friend Jacob wave a glowstick behind Lily&#8217;s head for a cool sort of fan outline effect. Having a second pair of hands was a huge help because I was able to focus on operating the camera and flash, especially now that flash had to be entirely separate to get still shots of her and so that she was lit enough for the camera to pick up since the glowsticks were much dimmer than the fairy lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-1024x678.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2492\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-1024x678.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-800x530.png 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-768x509.png 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-1536x1018.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8-453x300.png 453w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/10\/image-8.png 1816w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another one I&#8217;m debating on putting in the final is this rainbow shot.
