Nudes nominee

Painting fire with light was the idea behind this photo. For this first series, I wanted to go back to photography and light painting techniques. I used a strong flashlight (800 lumens) in order to lighten the curves of the body in a motion and a strobe with a yellow gel and a snoot from the top. The flashlight gives the motion blur on the arm but it’s still sharp on the face due to the strobe. Shot at 16mm, F22, 6sec. ISO 50.

My name is Thomas, also known as “Wohl Photography”. I'm a french photographer based in Berlin, Germany. My path into the visual arts began about 15 years ago, with graphic design; My graphical vision was based on a digital way to use real photos.
In 2017, was the first time I got my hands on a DSLR camera. I worked on architecture and symmetrical photography. I then met dancers and developed more artistic and defined concepts. This expanded to the opportunity to work with circus artists like Stefanie Millinger in Austria, as well as artists from the Cirque du Soleil and dancers from the Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin.
I work a lot on the picture composition, sometimes doing everything in camera and sometimes mixing with post production. I won several contests and was published by Magazines like Foto Magazin, Digital Photo Magazine or Artistic Vigilante Magazine and have done one exhibition in Berlin in 2019.
