Took this with my Lumix G1 and my Lensbaby Composer with the Doubleglass optic. Still experimenting.
My first Lensbaby shot with the single glass optic. Can't wait to experiment more tomorrow.
From Neatorama: "Neatorama has pointed out great works of light painting before, but Darcy Pendergrast of Dee Pee Studios has made one of the best videos of the artform around. Lucky by All India Radio, is the viewable blood, sweat and tears of Australian based animation company ‘Dee Pee Studios’. It involves a painstaking animation technique, whereby the team paints in the air with glow sticks, frame after to frame to create entire sequences of animation, usually taking a whole night to shoot."

The Wright at the Guggenheim Museum
Manhattan-based architect, Andre Kikoski has designed a restaurant in Frank Lloyd Wright’s Guggenheim Museum. The design solution references the building’s architecture without repeating it, and in the process transforming familiar geometries, spatial effects and material qualities. The playfulness of forms and the dynamics of movement through this 1,600 square foot space imbue the design with novelty, subtlety and intrigue, in part through the material palette of the space.
“We chose materials and colors for these dynamic forms that are restrained and elegant” explains Andre Kikoski. The design features include: a curvilinear wall of walnut layered with illuminated fiber-optics; a bar clad in a shimmering skin of innovative custom metalwork and topped in seamless white Corian; a sweeping banquette with vivid blue leather seating backed by illuminated planes of woven grey texture; and a layered ceiling canopy of taut white membrane.

I'm making a point of heading to the Guggenheim in January to see some of the current exhibits and see this new restaurant. It looks fun and in keeping with FLW's aesthetic. Can't wait to see it.
This makes me grin each time I listen to it.
