The Magic Of Photography

5th graders have been working on creating contour drawings in a unique way - by drawing with light!  This project requires a lot of planning, practicing, and cooperation, and all students have been up to the challenge!  The process is fairly simple: I take a time- lapse photo over the course of a few minutes.  While one student poses, another one stands behind him or her, tracing their body with a cellophane covered flashlight, and adding details.  The results are spectacular!
