Submitter's name:	Dan Mitchell
Title:	TOPE...
Gear used:	OM-2S + 24/2 + elastic band + photon micro-light
Diaphragm:	f8
Shutter speed:	~30 seconds
Film used:	Kodak Gold 100
Technical information:	24mm because from in front of the camera it's a lot harder to know how much will be in shot; elastic band because I don't have a cable release with me at the moment.. Scan, as usual these days, via digital camera, so the quality is pretty iffy, sadly. Nasty flourescent light for that evil green colour.
Subject information:	I only realised this TOPE was running three days before the end, so had to rush to get something done in a big hurry -- so I moved a light source around..

Now that's a nice tribute to TOPE!!! :) Very nice and you did well to write the letters so clearly (I know from experience that that is not all that easy).

Hmmmm. Novel idea. Of course, every photograph depends on the movement of light. :-) Were you able to do this in one shot? Or did you have to erase your writing and reshoot. ;-)

Very clever idea! Not an easy thing to do, writing with light. Well done!
