ertrum Prolific Registered: Wed May 19 2004 Posts: 1705 Loc: Cary North Carolina USA	Wow... Gorgeous pictures. This one's from 1979 when I took a trip to London and a friend and I decided we'd try our hands at night photos.

martin_cube Multiloquent Registered: Mon Sep 18 2006 Posts: 2313 Loc: Bristol England UK	These are all great photos. I may have posted this one before but it fits the theme. It's the Wills building in Bristol at night (hence the lack of daylight.) I thought it came out very well considering it was taken without the aid of a tripod or safety net. _________________________ Bazinga!

Jakeroo Prolific Registered: Sat Aug 30 2008 Posts: 1595 Loc: Alberta Canada	Liz: Lake Ontario looks remarkably calm in that pic! Martin: (giggles) at the safety net bit lol. VERY nice capture Pyonir: w00t! time-lapse tail lights. You're my current hero lol Zebra: love the white on black Flopsy: lovely lingering light in that photo. I'm not normally a fan of "borders", but I really think the minimalist orange line complements the picture PERfectly. Gees: liking all your photos Ertrum: very nice. Are there more? _________________________ As much as I love my friends, I won't jump off a bridge WITH them.

Jakeroo Prolific Registered: Sat Aug 30 2008 Posts: 1595 Loc: Alberta Canada	Szabs: ok, that is the most "surrealistic" REAL (unadulterated) photo I've seen in many months. That red moon is FABulous, as is the statue and the "viewpoint". I dearly hope you've enlarged/framed/hung that particular photo! Ertrum: All the London night scene ones you've posted so far are interesting. The lights make the buildings look "alive" somehow. Spooky but VERY cool. Thanks for sharing them. Satguru: well the camera may not have been "happy", but it's certainly an interesting result. Rod Serling could have used that pic for one of his Twilight Zone episodes : ) I like it! Chavs: lovely capture, and welcome! Edited by Jakeroo (Tue Jul 19 2011 08:00 PM) _________________________ As much as I love my friends, I won't jump off a bridge WITH them.
