Light painting with your HUAWEI device
One of the coolest features of your HUAWEI device camera is its
dedicated light painting mode. Light painting is a photographic
technique that uses moving light sources and long exposure times
either to illuminate a scene or to add new elements within the
photo.
The light painting mode offered by HUAWEI automatically sets a slow
shutter speed and adjusts the aperture, so you don't have to
manually modify any setting. Depending on the subject and the
lighting conditions, you can capture light trails or create light
graffiti, for awesome photos everyone will envy you for.

Paint with light using the Light graffiti feature
Light graffiti allows you to draw different shapes or even write
words by moving a light source in front of the camera.
Find a dark environment, without any distracting light sources and
make sure the subject's silhouette is not visible; if you want to
capture the subject as well, activate the flash.
For best results, we recommend placing the device on a tripod or a
solid surface so that it does not move during the shooting. Then
choose an appropriate light source, like a small flashlight or a
glowing stick and move it in front of the camera.

How to shoot light trails with your HUAWEI device
With Traffic trails, you can shoot artistic photos of car lights at
night. Find a spot where you can see the traffic; make sure the
headlights of the cars do not face the camera directly, as this can
cause overexposure.
For best results, we recommend using a tripod to reduce the camera
movement during the shooting.
