Night Photography by help im a bear

May 7th, 2008 10:10 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Explore your neighborhood in deepest, darkest night.

Share photographs and other impressions of your exploration.

I live in southwest Minneapolis.



It is a residential neighborhood.



After doing this task, I don't feel like I discovered any profound secrets.


But I did look at my surroundings.



That's not something I do every day.

and regular patterns of light especially

and how much easier it must be to paint in cursive than in print

but returning to things relevant to night photography in particular

you sometimes feel like you are walking in a ghost world


IMG_0132.JPG

where nothing has a shadow

where you can press a button

Yes.

Some lovely images, and interesting captions too.

And, do you know what would look great in those empty ceramic pots next to the hardware store door?

Little fake trees made out of pvc pipe would look great in those empty ceramic pots next to the hardware store door.
