Meet Kazh, a French street artist and tattoo designer exploring Leipzig's abandoned places. Here in these lost worlds, the curious explorer can find their inner peace through their creations. Not all forms of meditation are silent and still. Sometimes they can be loud and fierce and messy! ☾

I went outside to test my new travel tube the other night. It's impossible to be discreet while waiving a 2800 lumen lightsaber around. Almost immediately I was approached by a curious passer-by, Gregor. We decided to test the tube together :')

Last weekend, one Australian and one Columbian excitedly took to the streets of Leipzig. With them, they brought a camera, a tripod, a light painting tube, and a JBL speaker. The mission? Create light painting portrait experiences for the people.

After a few initial awkward moments setting up and finding their feet, the light painting tube started drawing the attention of passers-by. People, as it seems, are attracted to light!

We are proud to announce Dream Street Portraits' debut in Leipzig Markt was a success! Many people participated and had their portrait created, as other curious bystanders watched on, dazzled by the unfamiliar art form.

However, our first run was not without hiccups! A bittersweet symphony of camera remote issues, website malfunctions, and things like forgetting to charge the JBL speaker made the evening all the more memorable.

All in all, many happy people went home with a story and a unique portrait to keep forever. Dream Street sends a massive thank you to everyone who joined in, including Wis Sal and friends, who we have featured below!

These photos represent the beginning. As restrictions ease next year, our pop-up studios will be back with new equipment, flaunting new skills, and producing even better imagery.

Thank you, Luciano, for your Columbian enthusiasm, encouragement, and words of wisdom! Without you, I would still be searching for the perfect tablet to use to showcase photos.

Light art photography, while usually otherworldly, also has a close likeness to life itself. In that, it imparts this familiar feeling that you never really know where it will take you, or what stories it will share ✨

Mōna is a traveling photography studio with a twist.

We organize light painting photography experiences in the most instagramable locations we come across. Our mission is to add value to people's evenings out by providing a photography experience you will never forget.

What does Mōna mean? It's hard to say. It supposedly means drunk monkey in Spanish! For us, it's an old English word for our loyal nighttime companion — The Moon!

Currently, you might find us anywhere around Antalya, from the beach to the center of Old Town. With our bright tube lights, it's hard to miss us!

Our traveling photography studio provides light painting experiences in cities all across Europe. Learn about our story!

Choosing a flight that arrived at Tel Aviv airport on a Saturday was not my brightest travel decision! Any guess why? During Shabbat, all public transport suspends, leaving the shoe-string traveler with a 50€ taxi bill to reach the city. Fortunately, I was able to hitch a ride with a fellow Australian to Tel Aviv Beach. Thanks, James!

This street photography collection reveals life on Tel Aviv Promenade on a lively Saturday in Autumn. Young and old. People of all stages in their unique journey through life. A marvelous symphony of the choices we have made.

Has somebody ever saved you from your travel blunders? Let us hear about it!

Do you ever wish you could meet with the spirit of your favorite classical author? As Marco discovered, dreams really can come true in Germany's long lost abandoned places.

The question is... Which writer would you choose?
