As part of this year's recently wrapped National Geographic Photo Contest, photographer Sungjin Kim entered this fantastic light painting portrait. Like we've seen a few times before, a piece of steel wool was spun to produce a brilliant cascade of sparks. Love how this was taken right in the middle of a busy metropolitan city and how the light painting effect is intensified by the reflection in the water.
