Hi, I'm new to reddit in general but I casually do some light painting. It's all just abstract experimentation. I always include a little logo when I post stuff to my art insta because I am paranoid. Should I post without the logo?
Made myself a light pen earlier this week and am having so much fun learning this new hobby!
I’m using TimeLapsed app on my iPhone 15 pro max with the selfie camera mirrored.

Practicing block letters. Yo Reddit. This app is awesome for real time light painting and no post editing 🔦
