This is another long exposure photo (it looks slightly better on black). This picture is the result of an improvised collaboration with my long time friend Stoff (make sure to check out his page, there are some amazing creations to view). I love how scary Caroline looks...

 

I took this pic by night at the seaside in Hastings a few days ago, while I was travelling to the UK for an exhibition in London (Battersea Affordable Art Fair). I lived in Hastings from 2002 to 2003, it was so nice to be there again!

 

Stoff makes incredible "orbs" by playing with home made light sources. Luckily, Caroline Madison was there with us... during the long exposure photo, I first "flashed" her, while Stoff was making the magic orb in the middle of the composition.

 

If you wish, you can view here below a detail of the above photo, an extra shot and some other long exposure works.

Ethereal Tide

 

A poem by Peter S. Quinn

 

Beautiful bluish light

From the deep within

Ethereal tide bright

Gyrating in its spin

Love touch and feeling

We thought were lost

Thru endless wheeling

In its ghostly crossed

 

Soul in state of free

Where no one has been

Abyss deep symphony

Life has never seen

Occult shadowy places

Thu its endless ways

Light and shade erases

As time surges plays

 

Beautiful though gone

Never again seen

Darkish and scary on

Light of blue between

The hours wear away

None of them to keep

As the elucidation play

From the ethereal deep
