Streak

Streak

Light trails from planes streaked the clear night sky, while we wandered around on the rooftops.

Like I said, huge... And empty and now gone... Shame.
You can really see the immensity of the place in this one. Very nice night shot Motts.
It just completely SUCKS that progress keeps taking away remnants of the past like they never meant anything.
I like how the shadows show up so well in the night shots.
Rooftops and night sky.......love this shot!
brave motts i mean with all those holes in the roof up there wandering around in the dark.
do u climb? u always seem to be getting on the roofs.....
I climb a bit to get into some places, but there are usually stairs to the roofs so they can be maintained easily.
All looks very lonely and kinda of spooky. Even in day light. I bet you can hear the wind howling through there. I take it the everything of value has been taken away..
that place is massive.
How do you make the photos look like they are taken in broad daylight when they are all taken at night? that baffles me, then again what do i know lol
It's just a matter of leaving the shutter open for a few minutes; it's called "bulb mode" on most cameras. A tripod is needed as well to keep the camera from moving.
