This is one of the most important works for me: it was the first photograph I took with the light painting style (this very particular light effect), not knowing what I was getting into. Of course, it wasn't done so well on the first try; it took several attempts, but I didn't give up, and this was the last shot I took. Since I'm a very perfectionist and meticulous person, until something turns out just the way I want it, I'll try again and again, and I'm glad I did in this case, because if I hadn't tried, I probably wouldn't have gotten this shot, which I'm so proud of. It represents the duality between light and shadow, between darkness and brightness. I purposely played with contrasts and with these bright, saturated colors. Obviously, it also has a very important meaning behind it: in a moment of total darkness, the rainbow is always there and always arrives. It's also an invitation to not get discouraged, that sooner or later all bad times pass, the rainbow will always come!
