Mattress

It was a cold night and I was getting a bit tired. And then this came into view. Tempting....

Taken within a series of interconnected quasi-residential alleyways in Adelaide's south west corner.

 

Many years ago dubbed "the Beirut" end of town. Still a bit scruffy around the edges and offers plenty of opportunities to explore.

 

This is an exposure time I rarely go to lately - about three minutes @ iso200 on account of no street lighting. Fortunately the full moon blasted down onto the exposure for about a minute before it clouded over again - and a car turned it's headlights onto the roller door to the right for a few seconds. Kismetic moments like these are wonderful, as though the world around you is contributing actively to your creation. Unfortunately, the reverse is so often the case.
