Troy Paiva- artist

Troy Paiva's Website

Troy Paiva is a nighttime photographer. He uses a technique called light painting to create hauntingly-cool images in low to no-light conditions. He goes to abandoned locations and junk yards to capture his images. The first image is from a junk yard. I chose it because it kind of sums up the whole "junk yard" feel. The bottom picture was taken on an abandoned cruise ship. I chose this one because I wanted to show a picture of his without the red/green lights, too. Troy works with longer exposures (in the minutes range), and it's something different that I hope you'll all enjoy. A lot of the images are kinda creepy-cool, which I think is fantastic.
