Twenty-four-year-old photographer Daniel Barreto likes to experiment with light. In his video, entitled “Ignite,” abstract light-shapes dance within the frame like ghosts.

The Boston-based artist used LED lights to create the apparition-like effect. Watch the film below, and learn more about Barreto’s process here.
