 Shot late at night. Camera was tripoded and interval timer used. A flash light was used, to create the x. As shutter tripped, I streaked light on ground. Being aware, to always have flash light pointed away from camera. After first line was done, flash lite was turned off. Repositioned myself by wall again and turned flashlight on. Continuing the second streak of light. Once x was done, I removed my self from camera's view, to continue exposure. Raised exposure, temp, shadows, cropped, slight curve adjust and resized in iphoto.

Nice shot, but a little uninteresting to me. 6

The only detraction, to me, are the two string lines. The 'X' is fabulous as it looks like either light from above or sand thrown out in the shape. Either way, very cool: 9
