Chris, thank you, I almost always use the natural colors of the environment - post manipulations are usually brightness and contrast adjustments.

Quest, there were no street lights lit, but rather the landscape is being illuminated by the full moon, which is bright enough to light everything up without taking ridiculously long exposures. These averaged around 8-20 minutes long.

Ah, Babara, Furbies! They are a pain-very noisy!

Anna, don't worry, dear: As Silkster40z said, a basement is just a place that creepy stuff has that everyone dislikes.

Your ability to evoke varying emotions to your shots is inspiring. Do you do any manipulation of your images after they are shot or is all of that color and texture from the ambient light?

Lynne: How does one accomplish this view? I'd love to do this. I understand how one could digitally redo this and lighten it and really see the leaves on the trees--I just don't know how !
Any sugestions out there?

Remember these are night time photos. Mr. Motts, excuse me and I may be incorrect, but were these taken in the dead of night--no lights? If so, the reason why we can see the building is due to the expertise of the photographer and lensmans. Correct me if I am misinformed (anyone) --I'm so happy with these photos., Mr. Motts!
...It seems that the dead of night presents the most accurate representations...?

Straightforward beauty

Kassie: Not selfish, just preservationist of you. What a find. Now a days we don't make visuals, just comps. to preserve this would explain so much-WOW!

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*kicks the floor and walks away*

lynne :-(

Motts, Why are you so awesome.

The taco club.
Whoa.
I mean.
-Whoa-.

I just love the art on the back of the stage. Everytime I see this picture that is the first thing I see.

The wispy light really MAKES this shot!
