All it takes is darkness, some trees, a good green laser, a good camera with a long exposure, and a willingness to do something casually pointless that, in some other context, would get you branded as the best new artist to come along the New York Art Scene since Andy “I have no talent except for bullshitting the gullible” Warhol.

  1. Was the laser mounted on the side of an AR? 😉

  2. Handheld, for the moment. I’ve considered mounting it to the side of my Saiga 12-gauge, but I’d really like to mount it to my .44 magnum Mare’s Leg. Problem is, it’s a sizable piece of electronic hardware, and the Mare’s Leg was designed the better part of a century before lasers were mounted to firearms.

  3. Really neat! What settings are you using on your camera and how long is the exposure?

  4. …All the more reason to work up a suitable mount, then!

    The mount is easy. There is currently a small rail screwed to the right side of the foregrip, fitting a small red laser. But the green laser is about twice the linear dimensions. And with current *small* laser is doesn’t fit in anything resembling a holster.

    ISO was set at something like 2500; exposures were manual, but on the order of 5-10 seconds.
