Really enjoyable night of blues.
ReplyDeleteI really really like these. Out of curiosity, what kind of camera do you have?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteFL - Very much like an impressionist painting.
ReplyDeleteHi chrome. Yeah, the blues are really dominant. The lights flicker and change quite quickly so it's hard to capture exactly what you want.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tattered Edges. I'm really pleased with them myself. I have a Canon Powershot AS1000 IS. Had to keep a verrrrry steady hand.
Thanks Cath!
