I think I’m just tapping into the top layer of the wildlife in this place, but so far what I’ve seen it’s mostly the furry, fluffy stuff. In a variety of sizes. Mostly big…

So… I’ve been trying out some painting with light. Or actually, with the flash.
They’re building a new bridge close to where we live (and the construction is an artwork in itself, I should really make a picture of it), and they’ve pulled up a framework of wood. I went out the other night to shoot some night shots and I ended up here.

With the camera on tripod (naturally), the remote shutter release locked and the exposure on bulb I went out with the flash in hand and popped it some in the beginning of the structure, a bit more half way and quite some more in the end. Trying to create some kind of creepy passage.
Did I succeed? Not sure. My better half thinks it’s creepy alright. And interesting…
You know when you ask someone what they think and they go “Hmmm… well, ummm… Yeah! It’s interesting…”
😀 No really… My better half would just brutally honestly tell me if it sucked (which is really effective and helpful!). So it must be somewhat interesting.
