Capturing light trails of something moving, often a vehicle, is somewhat magical because it’s something you cannot see with the naked eye. So only through the use of a camera and the right exposure techniques can this be possible.
Remember that light painting is just that if you show the light source – capturing the light trail.
Let’s look at a few images of light trails and see how these photographers captured the magic:
