Hmmm, might have a laser pointer somewhere...

Would you move it around, or just point it, and do the long exposure?
I assume that a laser pointer is not strong enough to do damage to the sensor on the camera? I read of someone having issues at a disco when a laser wrecked the sensor...

I always wanted to try light painting, too...

Tonight, however, I am stealing my daughter's plasma ball! That should be interesting!
