French visual artist Jadikan has long been passionate about photography. Since 2005, he has integrated light painting into his photography, and the technique is heavily utilized throughout Jadikan's impressive portfolio.
Since his youth, photographing long-exposure light painting images has remained an ever-fixed infatuation of artist Will Ferguson.
Australian photographer Donald Yip went out into the desert on a clear night, found an abandoned bus, and captured this remarkable "halo" photo using drone light painting.
Artist Frodo Álvarez, who goes by the name Children of Darklight has completed an incredible, complex five-drone collaborative light painted drawing in the sky. The finished product is huge and insanely detailed, and depicts a man about to kick a ball, floating above a soccer field.
Before we jump into this blog post if you haven’t already read how I do drone light paintings horizontally in the sky be sure to check this out here.

So instead I scoured the Web for drone apps that could make things like this possible.
