 This is one of photographs of light graffiti from car lights, I have taken this outside Big Ben in London as I think this was a very good location for this style of image due to their being a very straight road and also a barrier on the edge of the road which meant I could hold my camera still meaning that the photograph was not blurred. I also think the lighting in this area of London meant that this photo has turned out very well. This photo shows the streams of light from the passing vehicles and I think this shows creative use of light in a very creative way.

This is a picture I have collected off of the internet which shows the streams of light from vehicles outside Big Ben. This photo has a very clear colour range due to the streams of lights and Big Ben being the same colour. This photo shows creative use of light because of the streams of light, the bright light in the right side from where the light has started and also the lights on the building. The photographer of this has also included some street lights however these are out focus which means that it makes them stand out and look different to the rest of the photo.

These images are very similar because of the location, both of these photos were taken from outside Big Ben and both involve light streams from vehicles however they are also slightly different due to being taken from different areas outside Big Ben and the colour range between my photo and the internet image are completely different. In my photo I have used the natural lighting meaning that the lights from the vehicles are red and white whereas the photographer has used slightly different settings meaning his image is very yellow toned.
