Light Graffiti
Light Graffiti again involves a very dark scene and a long exposure, but rather than painting a subject with light, the light itself becomes the subject. You'll want something really bright - a torch, glow stick, or anything similar can work well. Experimentation is key, and it might take a while to get the effect you're looking for.
Try drawing letters and spelling out a message, tracing the outline of an object in the scene, or drawing your own cartoon. If you can get the exposure just right, it's also fun to use light to interact with other objects in the scene, as shown below:
Experimenting with your own light graffiti is, quite simply, great fun. You don't need expensive equipment, just plenty of time and a creative imagination. Start with an exposure time of several seconds, and adjust it depending upon the result. As with light painting, a tripod is an absolute must.
