Need some opinions - which is best for this theme :dunno- choose from one of many steel wool shots, or maybe just a simpler light painting of a barn. Appreciate your thoughts and insights...

    They are all good... But, there is something about your painted barn that I really like. It seems to draw me in.

    I like #2 ne_nau.gif
    The face of the spinner and the simpler, graceful light streaks stand-out. thumb.gif

    What are you putting in the steel wool to get the sparks??

    The barn one is the best I think.

    RacinRandy - nothing. Steel Wool lights up like crazy as is. Spreaading it out helps makes more. Google "steel wool light painting" and you will find plenty of examples, instructional videos, etc...

    The barn is awesome. Love the eerie mood you've created and the color.

    For me, it's all about #2 because of the spinner's face, but I think they're all strong!

    I said before I preferred the Barn image, but I also like the Lasso img with the mans dark sillouette in front. It's cool! Not sure why I like it .. I just do. Maybe it's like the mans ghost is there.
