My goal with this series is to explore every day scenes under the cover of darkness. A street corner, a lamp post, a doorway. Big city, small town, urban, rural. Man-made light versus nature’s darkness–––light and shadow interpreting minimalist settings in black and white. To see more in this series, check out Cover Of Darkness

This is one image in a series on the city at night–––the magic and lure of its lights, the mix of architectural styles, the resulting dynamic when framed with a portion of the purely functional parking decks which served as my shooting platform. In the end though, it is the light that drives these images, providing the visual magic and lure that is a city at night. To see more in the CITY LIGHTS series, check out my City Lights Album
This was from one of the times I was experimenting with slow shutter speeds on a point and shoot camera. I had my camera jammed up on a light post so I could get the motion of the traffic coming through.
Light posts.
(Jan 2020 - it was crazy cold -38C ish)

Just below the Vista House, off the Columbia River Gorge, you will find this serpentine road. The concrete fence, adorned with light posts and a rainy day, made for a pretty cool black and white photo opportunity.
14 pigeons perch atop a street light pole in the early morning hours. I shot this with my phone and took the raw image into my creative workflow for an interesting result.
The Iris Nebula or NGC 7023, is a reflection nebula, its color comes from the light of its central star, which lies in the constellation Cepheus. You can find it nearish to the North Star. It is located ~1,400 light-years away from Earth, and its gasses stretch ~6 light-years across.
Equipment:
Celestron CGEM Mount
Nikon 500mm f/4 P AI-s
Sony a7RIII (unmodified)
Altair 60mm Guide scope
GPCAM2 Mono Camera
Acquisition:
Taos, NM: my backyard - Bortle 3
101 x 181" for 5 hours 4 min and 41 sec of exposure time.
6 dark frames
15 flats frames
15 bais frames
Guided
Software:
SharpCap
PixInsight
Lightroom
Photoshop
My mount was polar aligned with SharpCap (what an amazing system for aligning). I then mounted my a7RIII and adapted Nikon 500mm f/4 P Ai-s lens to the top rail of my scope. I used SharpCap to achieve "excellent" polar alignment. I shot ISO 3200, f/4 and 181" exposures. Image frames were stacked and integrated and processed in PixInsight using: STF, Cropping, Dynamic Background Extraction, BlurXTerminator, plate solving, color correction, NoiseXTerminator and then the DSO was separated from the stars, and both files processed and stretched separately and then recombined using PixelMath. That file was brought into Lightroom for Metadata and EXIF tags, light post-processing, and cropping to the final image.
National Centre for the Performing Arts (The Giant Egg) at Nightfall in Beijing China
An ellipsoid dome Opera House made of tinanium and glass surrounded by an artificial lake. A must-see for everyone. Its reflection from the water adds charm to its remarkable design and clever engineering. Lights from the nearby buildings and light posts make it glow like big egg at night.

I was tempted to capture the stream of light posts out here, it is a wonderful place for various angles and compositions. But at times when there are lotta opportunities it gets confusing to select a particular composition, I somehow faced this confusion, but finally I was able to get this composition. Hope you enjoy it
Two Months ago I went for some shots at Northport harbor,
this couple were sailing in from the bay thus the tittle and the song:-)))
Please listen...
This image started during a bus ride up the California coast. I would see these lights along the highway. Very pretty, like a flashlight shining in an aquarium, lots of atmosphere. I watched these lights for a couple days until one morning Lou Reed’s “Stephanie Says” came up on my ipod, the light post went by the bus window and the finished picture kind-of fell into my head. I added the little horse because nobody wants to be alone in the dark. The model is my son Thomas.
And yes I’m the guy in the back of the dark bus scribbling in a little sketch book.
Eighth image in this autumn flowers series...
These buds are bright red, but when the individual budlets burst forth they do so in many colors, including yellow, orange, purple, and red! Tomorrow's post will show these many colors :)
The blue background here is a painted light post, giving the two buds a smooth and colorful backdrop.
It is October 4th here in Wisconsin and the nights are getting quite cold (high '40's), but these Lantana plants and flowers are still hanging in there and looking quite nice.
