Artist's Comments

I did a series of these with *ritzcrackaa's camera a while ago, but now that I have mine and have a better understanding of the manual settings, and a better plan of what the light should do I reshot a few and liked this one best.

Coolpix 4300
2.4 aperture
8 second exposure

**EDIT**
Wow this is astounding, I've never had a piece do this well, let alone within the first 10 hours of uploading it, this will most definately become a print and yes I will drop the white borders, the only reason I add them is I feel that it helps the image pop off the DA green just a tiny bit better, I intend on thanking each and every one of you personally when this slows down a bit but for now I thank you all for really making my day and get ready for some shit because I took a few more shots today that I feel are equally as good as this one and they'll be uploaded one at a time every few days to let the previous image run it's course.
dancing around like an idiot with 2 flashlights

***2nd EDIT***
Holy monkey balls batman this got a DD? sweet :D (Big Grin) Some of you also think I burned this image and what not, however :) (Smile) this image came out of the camera this way, it was a careful balance of aperture, exposure, and white balance, the only thing I did in Photoshop was to add the border the text and resize it, nothing else :) (Smile) Thanks again

strangledbyart had given back to the community so much, that when i've seen Ghosts Walk Among Us by him, i was not only awed by the beauty of this photograph, but by the fact that photography is in his skills as well. enjoy this intriguing play with light. (Selected by +olya) (Featured by `olya)

excellent use of light and long exposure! what did you use to create the light? [candle/torch etc] - it's very clear and sharp :) (Smile) playing with light is always fun, and the remarks can sometimes be spectacular, such as in this case

Feeling lonely and content at the same time, I believe, is a rare kind of happiness

i comment because i think your art is worthy of being critiqued. not cos i whore myself. not cos i care about being returned the favor. cos *you* deserve it. get it through your heads. if you think i deserve something, thats cool too.
