And it turns out there were many more than we had realised. Here are just a few of the artists using the medium of LED lights and using photography skills to create amazing and innovative images.

He is keeping his lips sealed on exactly how he creates these amazing images leaving many people including mathematicians trying to figure out his technique. What he will tell is that he uses LED lights, a camera set for long exposure, and a cable release which allows photos to be taken remotely. Andrews exhibition of his work was shortlisted for Best Exhibition in the The News Guide Awards in November 2010.
