I just set my camera on a timer, and had it take a 4 second exposure. They look pretty cool when viewed at full size

Last time I messed with Bottlerockets I got arrestedzorz, they are illegal here. Not to mention we were in a desert field shooting them at eachother.

but the cops don't really care (the guy that provides me with teh illegals is a cop himself)

"OH MY GOD! ITS GONNA CATCH THE FIELD ON FIRE!"
" We have to put it out!"
"HOW?!"
"WATER!"
"Theres no water around!"

To my knowledge they were legal, not that it really bothered me either way. :lol:

those images would make some cool photoshop brushes. i gotta try that 3-4 second exposure thing.

get one of those firecrackers that flash like a strobe light, light it, find a way to get it waaay up in the air, and do the exposure thing, so you get a bunch of bright dots in an arc. that'd be sweet.

or just play target practice with pvp pipes and bottlerockets. much easier to aim them, especially when the back end of the pipe is taped off. shoulder-launched fun! ^_^

It looked a lot like a fractal made with chaoscope, see the following thread.

well, i've gotten around to attempting to make brushes. well, technically i already made them, but they suck. i'm gonna keep working on it and attempt to poduce some good ones though. i'll post back with 'em if they get good enough.
