Someday I'll perfect this shot.
The big building is a reflection. The safe and interior lights are seen thru the glass. The place was a bank, but is no longer. Its gone thru a few buisnesses since.

Some people say that photography isn't taking a picture of some object, it is taking a picture of the light. That is more apparent in a lot of your pics.
Impressive. Impressive that you recognized the scene, and were able to capture it.
Yes, that's another good one....From our master of the night....
Nice Glen.
I have a book called, "Painting with Light" by John Alton. It is really targeted for film makers, but there is a lot of similarity, as you would expect.

Thanks. I was on the fence (metaphorically) with this one... I think if the foreground and L / R sides were any darker it wouldn't have worked. I saw the light on the wall and was like a moth to flame

I'd like to see what it looked like if you cropped out a good part of the bottom and left side. Kind of get lost in the dark stuff.
That would bring the subject, your well lit wall, a little closer.
I played with it a bit. Another of my photography quirks is that I generally only crop to original size, and doing so on this one cut out the top of the lighted wall.
I wonder how he got here

Bob, I like the glass and door. I zoomed in the the door. The bars against the black, then the yellow behind is a cool look.
Scott, that face is a cool find, that I'm assuming took some time to carve.
Many years ago I was in NY state doing a mini hike around a park and waterfall. The creek bed and surrounding rock was mostly smooth. There were names and initials carved into the stone dating to the late 1800s. Old time graffiti.

Interesting find, and some good shots.
I wonder if that is what is meant by "chiseled features".

Thanks. I was given two old lenses, which I bought an adapter for to fit them on my camera. I've been experimenting. Night probably isn't an ideal time to experiment, especially with a manual lens, but I'm a bit of a glutton for punishment in that regard. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, etc..
In a fit of my own nitpicking, I now can't unsee the area on the right of the second shot where the side of the window is not straight / parallel with the edge of the shot. I went back earlier and fixed it, but better.

Pic of the week game prompted me to go over some old photos of our trips south. This one was always a favourite of mine. Backcountry, mid Utah south of Green River 2005. Old Red Truck doing it's job.
