Nice stuff, really captured a dark wet night.
Now, what is it about CityNoise adventures that makes the wet time the right time?

Pabbbbbblo: 17th May 2009 - 23:59 GMT

That is because the wet time is the right time for an adventure deep into the tunnel. Snicker.

Sean Hopkins: 18th May 2009 - 00:19 GMT

Yo Peter these are like eye candy. What kind of exposure time did you use for these?

jethro: 18th May 2009 - 01:36 GMT

You did capture a wet, night scenery!
Some of the things in the pictures kind of look like they're giving off moisture, maybe the trees, haha!

Peter: 18th May 2009 - 02:03 GMT

21 seconds to 1 minute... i dont do tons of night shooting, and last night i discovered the hard way that my camera has some limits once you get into long exposures at certain iso settings. hmm. add the rainy weather and the environment, and i thought these came out sort of dark, noisy and brooding, but... they definitely captured the feel at that spot at that moment, i guess!

Sean Hopkins: Dude they came out reeeeally well

anon (96.25.84.162): did you use a tripod?

Peter: 18th May 2009 - 05:15 GMT

yup. my hand is just not steady enough for non-blurry 1 minute exposures ;)

Psyche: 18th May 2009 - 08:24 GMT

They look like something out of a fairytale? So beautiful

jack: really nice shots peter. you should do a book.

Le Bien, Le Mal: 18th May 2009 - 17:35 GMT

It is very frightening but it is also beautiful at the same time, like a fable from childhood, but caught in the dark nightmare.

I used to live near there, in Brownsville. Pretty scary area by the late 60's. I went that way going from East New York back to East Flatbush, by train and bus.

Courtesy of a London convenience store while on vacation. Someone got hold of it right after they saw me snapping this photo and fixed, so no more giggles, unfortunately. I wonder if anyone will come here looking for Spashal Sixy Girls???
