Night Photography by Ms. Deryn

March 16th, 2008 12:42 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Explore your neighborhood in deepest, darkest night.

Share photographs and other impressions of your exploration.

As I was wandering around my neigborhood, I was struck by how different it looks at night. I walk this way fairly frequently, and thus don't usually notice my surroundings. The cranes looked like monsters having a rest from battling. The dark paths and secret places became much more menacing, and the lure of lighted areas became greater.
The neon lights caught my eye as I got to the Castro. They are so pretty, trashy but pretty. I didn't colour correct any of the photographs, because I really like the orange cast to them. I had wished the images of the city came out, but I actually like the close up shots of everything. They are given another level due to the intimacy with the camera.

These are great.
It's hard not to vote for all of the Night Photography completions.
