'Ball of Light': Denis Smith's journey through photography & depression

[Shanaynay]

Hey there,

Not sure where to post this, finally settled on the photography section :D

Just saw this amazing 15 min documentary of a man who used the technique of light painting to get himself through depression and also to produce some AMAZING pics!

Definitely worth watching - I am inspired!
