She agreed to help me with my personal light painting project. It was winter time and therefore best to shoot indoors. She proposed to use one of the rehearsal rooms at the Conservatoire. I didn\u2019t know what to expect and it turned out to be quite a challenging location. Nevertheless, I believe with light painting one can make the most ordinary looking place interesting.<\/p>\n<p>I first was intrigued by the reflections in the piano and using the keyboard as a leading line to Joana.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2215\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2215\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
