A nice set Serge. These are the kind of shots I look out for as well! The mono conversion works for these IMO as does your choice of a white border.

Thanks all - I was pretty soaked by the time of getting home, but the camera still works!

IIRC Pentax was sort of ahead of the game once with the K20D; it was one of the first DSLRs that could sort of do video albeit at only 14 fps...

As is is good for me. However another version with a figure just visible leaving (or maybe entering) the distant spot of light would also be good IMO providing further mystery rather than necessarily being dark.

Nice set Gareth.The first two colour ones are my favourites, although the 2nd to last b&w works well for me as well.
I guess in a few weeks time the sun will actually set in view from these steps? And maybe a long exposure with full sky colour at some time as well?

I really like the 3rd one from the first set and the very last image here!

Thanks Phil and Mike.

Mike - I can't remember however if it was lit, it was by wafting the LED light around during exposure to soften the effect
