The Old Royal Naval College of 1694 (Greenwich, London) seen through a 'pancake' lens. View from the driveway of Queen's House with the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf (across the Thames) in the background. Raw conversion in Luminar and refined in macOS Mojave photo editor.
My own hand, using a remote shutter release, and five small LED spotlights. As I wanted a plain black background, I covered myself in a black shroud and set the aperture as wide as possible. That led me to bump up the treatment in PP. It is overdone, but does produce sufficient punch.
Again this one of the many shots I took while down at the Reservoir near Wernigerode. I've always wanted to capture a shot such as this, that darker sinister sense of imagery.
But that said, it gave me such a sense of the way of the common human consciousness, or should I say lack thereof, of just how ambiguous we have become to the word "Empathy", we are so powerful in togetherness, I know it sounds trite and awkward and cheesy, even downright annoying to hear it, but when we are wowed by an enormous explosion in Libya and forget dozens of people are dead and thousands injured caused no doubt deliberately by a dark force; when we are aware of the plight of the starving Yemenis as well the desperation of the Palestinians, it reminds of a lyric by Chris Rea from the single The Road to Hell...
"And the perverted fear of violence, chokes a smile on ever face"
I truly hope it is paved with good intentions.
Mid week, we're almost there folks and so as always thank you! :)
Moving, shifting, changing the world? What was I thinking?

I keep six honest serving-men (they taught me all I know): their names are What and Why and When and How and Where and Who. I send them over land and sea, I send them east and west; but after they have worked for me, I give them all a rest. (Rudyard Kipling, Just So Stories)

I know that most of you prefer b/w for architecture, but I can't bring myself to convert this one into grayscale - I simply love these colors that were created by the late afternoon sun.

You may wish to come up with your own interpretation. But I did use an ND filter and five small LED spotlights.
Sitzt sicher, hinter dem Gitter des Halbverstandenen. Hinter der von anderen gemachten Norm. Nachahmer der etablierten Form. Irritierter Kunstpapst, dem die Angst im Nacken sitzt. Meister des Epigonentums.
