Alvin Tenpo > Abandoned Farm House, Fremont, CA

Front lit by moonlight supplemented with spot light pointed to the ground
to cast a wider light.

Multiple pops of the strobe with blue gel to light the interior.

Alvin Tenpo > Spark Stoves Barn, Palomares Road, Castro Valley, CA

I've seen this barn on my cycling trips on Palomares Road.  
The Spark Stove painting on the barn has always looked so 
interesting to me that I thought I'd try shooting it at night.

The moon on this night was 96% full (Waxing Gibbous moon) 
illuminating the left side of the barn.  

The front of the barn was lit by a street light at the 
intersection of Palomares Road and Paloverde Road.
Alvin Tenpo > Ambient light was provided by a parking lot light. 
Spot light with red gel to highlight the window.

Popped my strobe with blue gel filter on the 
tree branches and leaves.

From experimentation, it seems that a 60 second exposure
at f5.6, ISO 200 is about right for ambient light created 
by a street light.
Alvin Tenpo > Joe's Corner Sign, Niles, Fremont, CA

First attempt at light painting.  Taken in the early morning.
The morning was dark, but there was a lot of ambient light from
street lights.

I used a portable spot light with a red gel filter and painted
the sign.

I didn't know what I was doing really, it was more trial and error.

I heard that Joe's Corner may be revived in the future as a coffee
house.
