When I first saw this week’s Gallery theme I was a little bit excited. As someone who is just learning how to get better photographs, light did not immediately call to mind the ISO setting or AV mode or the best-light-being-in-the-early-morning-or-late-afternoon or any of that technical stuff. I thought feathers.
Except, despite several trips to the duck pond, I couldn’t find any to photograph.
Which was fine because I’d already moved on to amusing myself with other takes on the idea of light: candle light, fire-lighters, kitchen scales, Maltesers….. I like being ‘creative’ with the theme. I suspect I need to get out a bit more too. But anyway…..
One song kept coming back to me *clears throat* “they say the neon lights are bright on Broadway” (I blame the karaoke on Saturday night), which lead to me thinking about coloured lights, which is how I ended up with this:

Very very nice. Suitably impressed this week dear xx
Keith says
Yeah I like taking those shots as well. Fortunately I don’t drive so can sit in the passenger seat snapping away to my heart’s content. You can get some very interesting and fun effects.

A very clever picture, love the lights dancing x

Very clever and you can see the movement in the lights too!

I love images like this, I have tonnes that I have taken when in the car. I don’t know why it just seems cool!
Nikki Thomas says
I couldn’t work out what the photo was of! Really unusual!

Erica Price says
Love that – the way they are blurred makes it all rather surreal.
