Our final photographer this week explains her image below.

Chaos Contained

The photograph was taken in a darkened room with a light source hung from the ceiling by a hook and string. I set the light source spinning, before quickly positioning myself on the floor, camera pointing straight up. I rigged something up with books and a sheet of perspex to support the camera. The light source for the photo was a children’s toy with rotating light-up flower heads. The photograph is long exposure – 20 secs for Chaos Contained.
