Light graffiti supercars in London by Marc Cameron and Mark Brown
London's landmarks have been visited by some rather illuminating vehicles - a series of light-painted supercars. The images are the latest work of Marc Cameron and photographer Mark Brown. The duo are secretive about their exact methods but say they use a process of reflecting and refracting LED light to create outlines. Every detail of the vehicles is planned precisely before setting a camera on long exposure to catch the light painting. The entire process can take up to four hours.

Mrk Brown explains: “Using extended exposures I am able to step in front of the lens and paint with light using the camera as a canvas. Then I use real photographic components as a background for each of the light paintings. Nothing is digitally generated, only stitched together."

London-based Marc Cameron explains: "We previously photographed in areas of the Cotswolds, but for this series of the Light Graffiti Cars we decided to shoot at iconic locations in the Big Smoke, with the cars featured having to be the most visually-stimulating, stunning rides of recent times."

"We started at the BBC - home of Top Gear - before visiting other London locations," says Marc.
