Scenery, edited



While visiting my brother this weekend just passed I had the first opportunity to team up with him and do some photography, specifically in the area of light graffiti. This is something that is far easier when there are more people due to the nature of the activity. In fact most of the photos we took wouldn't be practically possible at all without at least two people given that the camera and the subject were separated by at least 15 meters of water, in the form of a lake. This is something that my brother and I have talked at length about before and have both done separately so when I stayed over for a night we knew there wasn't going to be much sleeping done.

So after our lovely Chinese that finished around 10 we swooped through his place, got the gear ready, donned the hoodies and hit the streets of East Grinstead looking for a suitably remote location.
after a little while we found a place and did a few test runs, just to check out the area we had to work with:






























Now confident of the area, we proceeded to paint the open air with our artistic flow:

























Having decided that the screech from that last Catherine wheel was far too loud we moved to a new location before disturbing the locals too much ... We also though it best to introduce an extra element to spice up the photos: Water





















Despite our previous experience this last firework too let off a very sudden and loud noise, captured quite well by a comment of a passer by which won't be repeated due to profanity but suffice to say it encompassed both fear and toilet humour.
